Description
Before nickel-plated steel took over in the 1960s for its brighter output and stronger magnetic response, pure nickel was the standard wrap alloy on electric guitar strings. D’Addario’s EPN115 set revives that original formula, giving you the softer, rounder voice that defined early blues, classic rock, and rockabilly playing.
- Blues/Jazz Rock gauge for a comfortable, familiar feel under the fingers
- Pure nickel wrap wire produces a warmer, vintage-style tone versus modern nickel-plated steel
- Corrosion-resistant packaging keeps each set fresh until you’re ready to string up
- Manufactured entirely in the U.S.A. on D’Addario’s precision, digitally controlled equipment
- Gauges: Plain steel .011, .014, .018; Nickel wound .027, .037, .048
D’Addario has built its reputation as the world’s largest string maker on exactly this kind of consistency — every set produced to the same tight tolerances, pull after pull. If your rig is calling for a rounder, less aggressive top end without losing sustain, the EPN115 pure nickel medium set is a direct route to that classic, broken-in sound.
