Electric Guitar
SG Nickel guitar strings deliver a balanced, reliable tone for electric guitar. Expect long sustain, responsive attack, defined mids and warm lows, from the sparkle of rock to full-bodied jazz. Made from high-grade materials under strict quality control, they maintain excellent tuning stability and precise tone. The plain strings use tin-plated steel round wire for a smooth feel and clear attack, while the wound strings pair an NPS nickel-plated steel wrap with a tin-plated steel hex core for fast response and note definition even at high gain tones. Careful handling and storage protect the materials and extend string life. With a wide range of gauges including extra light, light, medium, and hybrid, you can set the ideal tension for your guitar and your playing style on stage and in the studio.
