This set is built in Cortez Colorado using only USA Made wire. The shiny round plain strings and hex-shaped cores for the wound strings are tin-plated, high-carbon #A-228 music spring wire. The winding on the wound strings is nickel-plated steel wire which has become the most popular electric guitar string alloy since the late 1960’s. You will enjoy balanced tone with a superb blend of highs, mids and lows and the easy bending yet solid feel of the 10-13-17P-26w-36-46 gauging which is also the world’s most popular gauging. String tension for this set in pounds when installed on a 25.5 inch scale guitar and tuned to standard pitch is (10)15.98, (13)15.18, (17)16.58, (26)18.42, (36)19.67, (46)17.41 for a total of 103.24 pounds. All strings are 43 inches long. Clink HERE to listen to sound bytes.

Curt Mangan strings
Curt Mangan Nickel Wound Strings are sonically outstanding.
nickelwound electric guitar strings 10-46 regular
best strings I've ever used, super smooth, bright, they stay in tune. How did I survived for so long without these strings?
Nickelwound 10 - 46
I been playing for 20 plus years and have played many string brands. These have been my favorites and the only ones I've used the last few years. Great feel and life and I've never broken one at a show!

Great strings
This is what I use on my Stratocaster, they were recommended to me by my guitar luthier
10-46 NickelWound Electric Guitar Strings
These are hands-down the best strings I've used in over 20 years of playing. They snap and sparkle, hold their tune, are easier to bend, and last longer (without the coating) than any comparable strings on the market. I recommend to everyone who will listen!
