Pyramid Electric Guitar Pure Nickel Round Wound 6 String, .009 - .042, GR6942star rating 5JimNovember 30, 2011I've been playing guitar 24 years, mostly progressive metal, and I LOVE juststrings.com b/c I can experiment with all these different style/brands of strings, and it really does matter what you use. The feel and brightness of the string when I'm playing along with ease of tuning, vibrato, and bending is of the utmost importance to me, and Pyramid really does a great job on their strings. From all the brands I've used, Newtone Drop D's are the best for heavy down-tuned playing. Thomastik-Infelt are an amazing all around string, and Pyramid's are as well. Just outstanding strings.

"These are the best strings I have ever had the privilege of playing. They are very slick and bends are amazingly smooth. The tone is very punchy and responsive and the harmonics ring forever. I am also very impressed with how long they last these have survived a month of major abuse of a Kahler tremolo without breaking! I have stretched the crap out of these and they just keep going. I will never use any other string."
