D’Addario EPN115 Pure Nickel Electric Guitar Blues/Jazz Electric Guitar Strings

Classic electric guitar string tone dates back to the 1950s, when pure nickel was the primary alloy used. As the need for brighter tone and higher magnetic guitar strings grew in the ’60s, nickel-plated steel became the industry standard. D’Addario XL strings feature nickel-plated steel, but these EPN115 XL Pure Nickel strings offer a warmer, vintage tone alternative which many enthusiasts prefer.
