HOTCLUB TRADING

Silver wound Argentine New Concept strings, made by the French company Savarez, are now available from this site.

The original Argentine strings were those used by Django during the years when he wielded his Selmer Maccaferri guitar.
These strings although giving excellent tone were prone to early wear and breakage. These were still available until only a few years ago.

The "New Concept" strings now available incorporate modern winding technology, though not giving way to quality of tone. Providing a harder wearing, smoother string that delivers that elusive Gypsy Jazz tone that other strings just cannot live up to.

Used by many of the great current Gypsy Jazz artists today they are without doubt the most popular. Once used most do not go back to earlier varieties.

Currently available in gauges:
Standard : 011 - 015 - 023 - 029 - 037 - 046
Light : 010 - 014 - 022 - 028 - 036 - 045
