Curt Mangan 17011 11-48 Medium Pure Nickel Round-core

Medium set Pure Nickel wound on a Round-core. Pure Nickel wound strings were used exclusively on most guitars built in the Fifties and most of the Sixties. Pure Nickel has a slightly warmer tone than nickel-plated steel and is preferred by many blues artists.

Pure Nickel Wound roundcore strings are created by wrapping Pure Nickel alloys around a round core wire which is made from tin-plated high-carbon steel (same as plain strings.)
