Tone & Performance

Our Pure Nickel strings produce a pure tone and warm response that recalls the Nickel strings of the 1950s and ’60s.

American String Nickel string sets deliver a contemporary feel and are the ultimate experience for players who favor a vintage tone, play vintage instruments, or want a warm pure tone from any guitar.

Our Alloy 52 (52% Nickel Alloy)  has a dual function in that this set is fabulous when you want to play jazz-rock fusion styles or heavier rock styles.  

The Alloy 52 sets are designed for the guitarist who wants maximum output, harmonic response and ultimate flexibility!  These strings work well on any single-coil or humbucking equipped instrument.  Our specially designed  nickel-iron alloy combines several other components for extra long life, durability and low fret wear.

8% Nickel Plated Steel wound, hex core, producing a tone on the bright end of the tonal spectrum.  More aggressive sounding and biting (with plenty of mid-range).  Great for driving a bright signal through effects boxes

The quintessential acoustic guitar string that brings out your guitar’s true voice.

The American String Bronze 85 alloy is the premium set for either acoustic flat-top and archtop instruments of the highest quality (i.e., Martin D-28s, Guild F-50s or Gibson L-7Cs), this set is THE premier choice for both styles of instruments.   (AKA “Lost 60s Acoustic”)
