Description
This 6-string set from Jim Dunlop’s Performance+ line pairs nickel-plated steel wrap wire with a tension-and-flexibility balance tuned for expressive electric playing. The extra light gauging (.009, .011, .016, .024, .032, .042) keeps bends effortless while still delivering enough low-end grip for solid rhythm work.
Tonally, expect crisp top-end sparkle, punchy midrange character, and a low end that stays focused rather than muddy — useful whether you’re running a clean amp or pushing into heavier distortion. Chords ring out with clarity, and single-note runs translate with consistent articulation up and down the neck.
Dunlop builds these strings at its Benicia, California facility, running production at a deliberately slower pace in smaller batches. That approach gives the team tighter control over consistency from set to set, drawing on formulas refined through direct feedback from touring musicians. Each set is sealed in a protective bag to guard against corrosion and preserve tone before you ever break the pack open.
