A "Low Tension" set designed for comfort and precision
With this Jim Dunlop Electric Nickel 10-74 8-string set, you benefit from precise response and a more relaxed feel thanks to the "Low Tension" concept. The result: more natural bends and vibratos, less strain on the left hand during long sessions, and more controlled attack on palm-muted riffs. Made in Benicia, California, these strings are no accident: Dunlop applies strict manufacturing rigor and quality control that are immediately noticeable in tuning, intonation, and tonal consistency across the entire set.
