Monel has been around since the early 1900’s and consists of 67% Pure Nickel, 30% Copper, 3% of the magic juice that contains magnesium, zinc and other elements making Monel resistant to salt water (sweat). Monel also has a very unique “earthy” tone and is used on both acoustics and electric instruments. It has built in natural resistance to tarnish and corrosion yet it feels great to the touch and has its own unique tonal color. Monel provides a very rich tone on the neck pickup and this great little growl on the bridge pick up. For acoustic instruments it seems to bring out more the wood sound.

Best Strings You’ll Find
Curt Mangan strings, and specifically the Monels, are the only strings I play anymore. There are lots of strings with lower price tags and bigger promises, but you won’t find a better value or a better product than Curt Mangan strings. I get compliments on the sound quality early on, and that quality will last at least 5x as long as other strings I’ve tried. You might pay a little more up front, but the sound is worth the cost, and you will save money in the long run because you don’t have to change them as much.
