Shubb-Pearse steels are machined, not extruded, so the playing surface has a true radius. Made of brass for warm musical tone, and heavily chrome plated (not nickel) for abrasion resistance. The traditional size and shape of bar many players have used for years, and featuring the same quality machining and heavy chrome finish as other Shubb-Pearse steels.
