About Us

The entire Jimmy Wess product range has been designed to meet the toughest demands of professional musicians.

 They are made to provide excellent sound, fidelity, and – above all – ease of tuning and superior tuning stability.

Jimmy Wess is the professional string that stays in tune longer.

The secret to tuning ease, quality and stability in a guitar string lies in a complex balance of manufacturing and technical factors. These include quality control of the materials used in the strings, their combinations, proper supervision of manufacturing processes, and adherence to production specifications.

In all Jimmy Wess strings, tuning qualities are obtained through choosing an ideal angle of attack in windings, and strict control of Jimmy Wess's exclusive production TENSION-PRESSURE ratio. They are the product of decades of research and care in string manufacturing.
