Description
String Central carries the Jim Dunlop Heaviest Core Set, a nickel wound 6-string set engineered specifically for guitarists working in dropped or lowered tunings. Made in Benicia, California, this set uses Dunlop’s proprietary core-to-wrap ratio to keep tension and tonal focus intact even when standard tuning isn’t in the picture.
- Gauges: .012, .016, .020p, .032, .042, .054
- Nickel wound construction
- Heaviest gauge in the Dunlop core-tension line, with a plain (unwound) G string
- Unique core wire and wrap ratio built for low-tuned playing
The heavier core wire lets you dig into the strings with authority while the low end stays tight rather than flabby. Midrange comes through focused and present, and the top end stays smooth whether you’re playing clean or pushing into distortion. It’s a set built for players who tune down and still want articulation, not mush.
This listing includes six individual sets, so you’re covered for multiple restrings without reordering. A solid pick for electric guitarists, and a practical stocking stuffer for anyone who plays low and heavy.
