D'Addario EPN115 Pure Nickel, Blues/Jazz Rock, 11-48

The EPN115 set combines the playability of D'Addario's renowned medium gauge strings with a warmer vintage sound.

D'Addario's XL nickel strings evoke the 1950s, when nickel was the primary alloy used in the production of electric guitar strings.

In the 1960s, nickel strings were replaced by nickel-plated steel strings to meet the demands of musicians of the time: a brighter tone and better magnetic response. These nickel strings bring back the richer, brighter tones found in traditional blues, classic rock, rockabilly, and many other musical styles.

String gauges: Steel .011, .014, .018, Nickel Wound .027, .037, .048

• The nickel-coated wire produces a warmer version of the typical vintage sound of the electric guitar. Eco-friendly, anti-corrosion packaging keeps the strings fresh. Made in the United States to ensure the highest quality and optimal performance.
