LJ label
The GHS Americana S435 Medium I like so much were all labeled "LJ" on the individual string enclosures. So while Laurence Juber is no longer officially endorsing them, seems his initials remain.
I think he may have been involved in developing the core to wrap wire ratios.
Also interesting, each string package was labeled "cryogenic." Seems to suggest even the plain strings receive the treatment, although it could just reflect the name of the string set.
BTW the plain strings are bronzed. Nice appearance.
I really like these strings. They sound great to me. Makes playing finger style more enjoyable overall. Some of the tones coming out of those strings is startlingly good.
