The Savarez 510AR Alliance Cantiga is the normal tension set pairing Alliance KF composite (carbon) trebles with Cantiga basses. The Alliance trebles are bright, focused, and quick, with precise intonation; the Cantiga basses are warm and powerful with long life. Normal tension gives a comfortable feel that suits most instruments while keeping the clarity Alliance is known for.
Savarez has made strings in Lyon, France, since 1770 and pioneered the fluorocarbon treble with its Alliance line; its sets are color-coded by card: red for normal tension, blue for high, yellow for extra high. The 510AJ is the high tension version, and the 510ARJ pairs these trebles with high tension basses.
