Ned Steinberger and Jim D’Addario in New York office.
D’A ddario, in partnership with Ned Steinberger, has created NS Electric strings. Featuring great tone, quick bow response and pitch stability, NS Electric strings work well with many different varieties of pickups and playing styles. Though they have been optimized for electric instruments of all types, they also work well for acoustic instruments especially when subtlety of expression is paramount.
