Fusion Matched is the trademarked proprietary method that combines the highest quality, 100% made in the USA wire & 100% USA workmanship to produce strings with exacting core to-wrap ratios & tolerances.

Nickel plated steel wound strings were introduced in the late Sixties and have become today's most popular alloy for electric guitars due to their balanced tone.

Nickel Wound strings are created by wrapping Nickel-Plated Steel alloys around a hex-shaped core wire which is made from tin-plated high-carbon steel (same as plain strings, but hex-shaped). The “core-to-wrap” ratio is the combined diameters of the core wire and the wrap wire which creates the overall diameter of the string.

 

Perfecto De Castro is the quintessential guitarist’s guitarist. Well-versed in a multitude of musical styles, his affinity with the instrument is evident in everything he does; from unleashing an emotion-laden solo with an overdriven electric guitar, to navigating complex musical counterpoint on his 10-string classical guitar.

Perf, as he is known to Filipino music fans, is best recognized as the original guitarist for 90s Pinoy Rock supergroup  Rivermaya. Since his departure from the band he has added numerous credits to his wide and varied list of accomplishments; producing platinum-selling    albums by Wolfgang and Marc Velasco, lending his guitar wizardry to Philippine Music Icons Mike Hanopol and Francis M, and garnering awards such as NU 107’s Guitarist of the Year as well as Best Rock Instrumental Recording from Philippine Music organizations Awit and Katha.

Currently based in Los Angeles, CA where Perfecto maintains an active musical career teaching, recording and performing. His two solo 10-string guitar CDs “A Journey through 10 strings” and “CAPARISON” have been warmly received by fans and are currently available wherever music is sold. Perfecto performs regularly with the Filipino-American Symphony Orchestra and with his band, RockStallion, whose debut CD has sold out its initial pressing via their live shows alone.

Perfecto has used Curt Mangan strings since 2005 and is proud to be part of the Curt Mangan artist family.
