What Players Are Saying
Perhaps the Best Strings on the Planet
These are the best strings I have ever used in over 30 years of playing. I have installed these on a Gibson 137 Custom as well as a Custom Shop Firebird and without a doubt, better feel, better tone and better tuning stability than any other strings I have tried.
Best Strings Ever!
I’ll play these strings for the rest of my musical life. They feel smooth, sound amazing and last much longer than any other strings I’ve played before.
The Strings Brought My Guitar to Life
My Strat never sounded better after I re-strung it with the Original Nickels. The strings brought my guitar to life. I don’t care to change strings unless I have to and these continue to sound great for longer than any other string I’ve used. Highly recommended.
Best guitar strings hands down
I have been playing guitar for 50 years and American Strings are best strings around. They have clarity and stand up to aggressive playing.
Great Strings
These are the best strings I’ve ever had on my guitars. Bought 4 sets for 2 of my old guitars and made them sound like new again. Hold a tune very well, even after using a capo. I’ll be using these from now on.
My 40-year-old Guild D45 has never sounded so sweet
My over 40 yr old Guild D45 has never sounded so sweet. The tone and harmonics are thing of beauty. Now they are on all my acoustics. Love them!
Great Finger-Style String!
I put a set of these on my Collings OO that I use primarily for finger style playing. Brilliant, clear and maintains great balance. I have some trouble articulating this part, but there’s a smoothness to the feel of these strings that make them a real pleasure to play and for me, it’s something about the texture of the string surface perhaps. Excellent strings!
Great Strings!
I use these strings across the board. 3 Acoustics and 4 Electrics. Easier on the fingers than non round cores. Play more like 10’s with the 12 output. 🙂
