D'Addario EPN21 Pure Nickel Electric Guitar Strings, Jazz Light.012-.051

D'Addario EPN21 Pure Nickel Electric Guitar Strings, Jazz Light.012-.051

Q: does anyone know what is the difference between the pure nickel and the wound nickel?

Pure Nickel is less susceptible to the magnetic field, and thus warmer. A lot of blues players use them. Think 50/60’s sound. Nickel Wound, has a steel core, which are affected more by the pick-up magnets. Those strings have a brighter attack. Hope that helps! Always try them yourself, personal taste may differ.

Q: Is the G string wound

On sets over 12 gauge on the first string... the 3rd string is wound. Under 11 gauge E string the G is plain.Overall great strings these pure nickel ones.

Q: Are these good for a semi-hollow body style guitar like an Ibanez artcore ag75?

Hi, yes they are good strings for that guitar. I bought them looking for a warm jazzy tone, but these caliber are hard to play.

Q: Are these strings good for a telecaster or strat ?

Yes, and as with all things, it depends on what kind of sound you're going for. Pure Nickel strings tend to have a warmer tone which is great for blues. If your guitar's pickups tend to be too bright, these will help smooth put the tone. I used them on my strat which was equipped with Noiseless pups that were very bright.
