A "Pure Nickel" set designed to recapture the tone of early electrics
With the EPN120, D'Addario combines the playability of the very popular Super Light gauge with a softer tonal color. Back when nickel was the reference alloy for electric guitar strings, the result was a less aggressive, more balanced sound with generous mids. This set is designed to recapture that "old school" character, especially appreciated when you want to make a tube amp sing, soften bright pickups, or achieve a rounder attack.
