Optima Special Silver NO6 Nylon HT Classical Guitar Strings

“Are you optima about the way that things are going?” When guitarist Terry Kath asked that question in “Dialogue” on Chicago V, he was playing Optima strings, hence the lyrics.

Wait, what? No? Apparently that’s wrong. He was actually asking “Are you optimistic?” Which really makes more sense. And truthfully, we don’t know if he was playing Optima strings at the time. But we can hope. Hey, if they’re good enough for the likes of Brian May and John Entwistle, they’re plenty good enough for Kath – and for you as well.

With over 100 years experience, the German company is known for the quality of its strings and its dedication to the craft. It continues to stay abreast of technological advancements while it still makes its strings by hand. So in that case, yes, we are optimistic about the way that strings are going. Things! The way things are going.
