Pure nickels are the way to go.

I have to say these are the worst sounding pure nickel strings I've ever put on my Mustang

But sometimes we could make more tonal difference by just spending five bucks!Case in point: pure nickel strings

Can't recommend pure nickel strings enough for that classic blues or jazz tone

My go to strings have been Dr. Pure Blues, and I've always used Ernie Ball (Pure Nickel and Slinky) and D'Addario strings on it

Pure nickel - won't eat into your frets like nickel plated strings do after the nickel wears off.

The nickel is easier on frets, nut, and bridge.

If you're used to mixed alloy, pure nickels might seem a little "dull", but wait a

Tubes and pure nickel are like Gilmour and Strats or Angus and SGs

So, if you haven't tried pure nickels, spend a buck or two more (or maybe less!) than you normally do and give these bargain-priced nickels a try

Nickel is soft, it "wears away" and notice your frets are made of Nickel as well, and you never see this kind of chemical reaction with the frets of your instrument (assuming is has Nickel frets, as most guitars do).

Pure Nickel strings are warmer and have provided me with that classic strat tone that I have not been able to get with regular strings.

Paying for "Pure Nickel" is well worth it.

I have since changed over to original bullets (pure nickel)

I believe that Medium Fender Pure Nickel Electric Guitar Strings are a perfect match with my vintage 1966 Fender Jazzmaster.

If you're used to mixed alloy, pure nickels might seem a little "dull", but wait a

I know that my ears sure love them when things are really cranked up; those Zep and Jimi riffs just sound and feel so much more right with pure nickel

The pure nickel 3150's are nice and warm and vintagey

The bluesy stuff just begs for pure nickels

Stainless doesn't sound quite so good as the nickel, but they do last a lot longer for me

Fender pure nickels sound amazing, feel great, and hold up at least twice as long as D'addario or Ernie Balls.

Can't recommend pure nickel strings enough for that classic blues or jazz tone

But these Fender pure nickels are very very nice, and at 4.75, they're a real deal

Love pure nickel

I have to say these are the worst sounding pure nickel strings I've ever put on my Mustang

First, these strings are really loud on for pure nickel strings

Pure nickel is the way to save your frets

Some may like the sound of these some may like the Pure Nickel

In my experience they sound warmer than most popular nickel wound strings and have less tension for a given size

you won't find a better pure nickel strings

I have also read allocades from renowned luthiers who lauded nickel over steel in both sound quality and wear

, I suppose if you want to get technical you could point out that most frets are nickel and using steel strings will wreck your frets faster, and strings are easier to change than frets

I like these 9-42 Pure Nickel strings ... nice tone, work well on my Stratocaster with Fender locking tuners ... great combo, even with ghost bends, slides, and pounding with Drop D and Open G tuning.

They have a nicer feel under my fingers than nickel strings do, the tone is (I think) a little brighter than nickel, and I overall like these better than nickel based strings in every respect.

Most pure nickels run nearer to ten, and these sound pretty much the same, and I don't seem to break many of 'em neither

Instead of pure nickel, I got nickel wrapped steel.

They're inexpensive, last a long time and the "pure nickel" wrap is easy on the frets.

I just like pure nickel strings.

These are the strings of the ancients, and there is just something good and magical about pure nickel strings and the way they sound

I think there's an electrical cohesion between pure nickel and good pups and tubes that is simply sublime

I just love the action, feel and sound of pure nickel strings

I like Nickel for the reduced fret wear and the sound.

So, now with this background I can tell you that the pure Nickel strings will constantly leave you with that chalky dark gray matter on your fingers.

These are great strings and were my favorite until I found Fender Pure Nickel strings.

Pure nickel tone is great for my bluesy style of playing

E (1) string broke before I could even get it half way tightened up to be in tune

The lower E, A, and D wound strings were fine, but the higher E and B strings just had no life
