A set of strings tailored for low tunings and heavy riffs

The Jim Dunlop Nickel 11-56 Drop B is aimed at electric guitarists who tune down and demand a clear response, especially on the low strings. With a heavier gauge, you gain control over attack, precision in intonation, and consistent tension, whether playing heavy rhythm, modern metal, or low-tuned rock.

The choice of nickel provides an effective balance between brightness and warmth, with a comfortable feel under the fingers for executing bends, vibratos, and aggressive playing. The result: more reliable tension in Drop B, tighter lows, and dynamics that follow your nuances, from fingerpicking to heavy pick attacks.
