DR Strings Pure Blues Nickel Electric Guitar Strings

DR's Pure Blues strings feature a traditionally assembled pure-nickel wrap on a round core for increased sustain and vintage tone.

Pure Blues electric guitar strings are constructed with a pure nickel wrap wire on a round core wire to produce a distinctive warm and balanced sound with rich overtones and a vintage vibe. They create the unmistakable tone and feel of classic American rock and blues with chords that ring out sweet and round, while leads have more punchiness and sustain. They feel smooth and playable with a remarkably responsive touch.

First, you must follow the directions these are not hexcore... they are round core. The core WILL break and they will go dead quickly if you do not heed the warnings and follow the instructions. I use the 11's on my Strat and 10's on my SG. They have the sweetest tone and awesome feel. Ernie Ball eat your heart out. These are the only strings I'll use...ever.
