Curt Mangan 10-38 Electric Guitar Nickel Wound Set.
10-13-15-26-32-38
String Length: 43 inches
Nickel-Plated Steel wound strings were introduced in the late Sixties and have become the most popular alloy for electric guitars and bass. Nickel-plated steel tends to offer the most balanced tone.
Nickel Wound strings are created by wrapping Nickel-Plated Steel alloys around a hex-shaped core wire which is made from tin-plated high-carbon steel (same as plain strings, but hex-shaped). The core-to-wrap ratio is the combined diameters of the core wire and the wrap wire which creates the overall diameter of the string.

10-38 six pack
These are my favorite string set of all time. I have used this gauge for the past 40 years. First Fender 150's when they were available, then Dean Markley until they stopped making them. Then GHS, but they felt different. My best friend and fellow guitarist in our band told me about Curt Mangan and since we both used the same sets I thought I would try them and I have not looked back. They are awesome strings. They are so much better on my Strat and Les Pauls than any alternative.
