Pyramid Pure Nickel Round Wound 6 String, .008 - .038, GR6838star rating 5Derek WallaceJanuary 9, 2010These 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.
