SOUND.
60 years ago Thomastik-Infeld invented the spiral rope core high twist used in Spirocore strings. For 60 years and counting it still remains unrivalled! Spirocore strings stand out with a distinctive focus, a brilliant and clear top and a very powerful bottom, ideal for dark sounding instruments.
STABILITY.
They have a very long life span and will support your every move and tone.
RESPONSE.
The spiral rope core enables prompt translation of every impulse from the left hand or bow into an expressive and powerful sound.
PROJECTION.
They impress with a long sustain, growl, punch and power but also with their great dynamic range and their multiplicity of tone colours. Designed to set the standard for the greatest Jazz players, more and more Arco soloists continue to discover the beauty of sound and playability of Spirocore strings.
PROUDLY PLAYED BY:
Avishai Cohen, Adrian Stout, Carlitos del Puerto, Viktor Krauss and many more.

Amazing product and store was really great to deal with!

Absolutely brilliant service. Guitar was slightly damaged in transit. Contacted Rico and he had it sorted out in two days. I highly, highly recommend this mob.
Hagstrom Ultramax

Excellent pickup at cost - with hard case! My sister loves it. Thanks Rico...I'll be back 🙏🏼

A quality instrument from head to toe.

Great to deal with. Delivery next day. Extensive range.
GIG Guitars made the whole process so easy. Rico kept me updated with great communication, delivery was fast, and everything arrived in perfect condition. Couldn’t be happier with the service.

Great guitar by Tanglewood! I missed out on the original release and I’m so glad they reissued the 20th Anniversary. Just had to get one and it’s awesome!!
GIG Guitars were wonderful to deal with. The staff were friendly, answered all my questions, and made buying so simple. Great service and I’ll happily shop here again.

This guitar looks beautiful and has a rich, full sound. The size is perfect for a woman, it’s very easy to play, and the quality is exceptional. I love everything about it.

A beautiful guitar which came well packaged with speedy delivery, excellent customer service and communication from Rico, would absolutely buy from this business again.
Great customer service. Great shop. Rico is the man

Great little amp. Awesome for practice at home. Probably even do some small gigs lol
Shopping with GIG Guitars is easy and fast. Rico has an abundant supply of knowledge and generously shares it in a friendly manner.
The team at GIG Guitars were fantastic in helping us choose the right instrument for our child. They took the time to understand our needs and recommended the cello that offered the best balance of quality, playability, and value for money. Their knowledge and service made the whole process easy and stress‑free. Delivery was prompt, and we feel confident knowing we’ve purchased from a store that truly cares about its customers. Highly recommended.
