KF Alliance (carbon)

Alliance (KF) is Savarez's composite fluorocarbon string, made to match the stretch and elasticity of gut with a very similar density, yet insensitive to heat and humidity, with excellent tuning stability and little wear under the fingers. Savarez recommends it for lutes, theorbos, baroque and romantic guitars and vihuelas. The number is the diameter in hundredths of a millimetre (KF 33 = 0.33 mm).

This new generation of Savarez KF Alliance´s synthetic strings is made of composite fibers using sophisticated technology. They are the result of intensive research on molecules, their connections and the crystallinity index, aiming to replicate own characteristics of the gut in a synthetic material, such as elongation and elasticity.

KF Alliance strings combine the qualities of sound of the gut with the resistance of the synthetic material, being completely insensitive to humidity changes. These strings offer superior stability and actual wear with the fingers is very limited.

Their geometrical qualities are perfect and the density is very close to gut.

The thicker the diameter is, the more perceptible the advantages are in term of sounding qualities compared to gut strings.

In many cases, they offer a valuable alternative to gut strings. They can be mixed and match gut strings perfectly as well
