Description
Jim Dunlop’s Heavy Core strings are purpose-built for guitarists who spend their time in dropped and lowered tunings but refuse to sacrifice feel or focus. Crafted in Benicia, California, each set pairs a specially proportioned core wire with proprietary wrap ratios so the strings hold their tension even when detuned, letting you dig in hard without the mushiness that typically comes with lower tunings.
This nickel wound 6-string set runs a heavy 10-48 gauge spread: .010, .013, .017, .028, .038, .048. That spacing keeps the low end tight and controlled, the midrange articulate, and the top end smooth whether you’re playing clean rhythm parts or pushing into heavy distortion.
Because of the core-to-wrap engineering, players get a more consistent response across the whole tuning range – the strings feel purposeful under heavy playing while still tracking cleanly for lead work. It’s a set designed specifically to answer the demands of dropped-tuning players who need low-end punch without giving up clarity.
