Nickel-Plated Steel wound strings were introduced in the late Sixties and have become the most popular alloy for electric guitars and bass. Nickel-plated steel tends to offer the most balanced tone.
Nickel Wound strings are created by wrapping Nickel-Plated Steel alloys around a hex-shaped core wire which is made from tin-plated high-carbon steel (same as plain strings, but hex-shaped). The “core-to-wrap” ratio is the combined diameters of the core wire and the wrap wire which creates the overall diameter of the string.

Electric Baritone Hex core nickel wrap 14-68 gauge
Following the completion of my 28.625" celtic style electric baritone guitar build I put on a set of D"Addarrio's. They were fine, I could have lived with them but then I tried these from Mangan. There was an obvious increase in the richness of tone and mainly how the strings range together in a more complex and desirable way. I thought they sounded the best the first couple of weeks of regular playing and then appeared to mellow out a little bit, still being very nice but perhaps relaxiing on the high frequency presesce a bit. I will likely stay with these as I was delighted with what they did for my homemade electric baritone. Very good indeed.
Quality Strings
The Bunn's video comparison brought me here and for good reason, these strings are highly recommended.
The best
These take my Chandler baritone to the next level. I’ve tried just about everything, these strings make my guitar sound better, feel better, and play better. Highly recommended!
great strings for Baritone B tuning 30' scale
Loaded the strings on a 30' Baritone squier jazzmaster whom I disliked the sound. Theses strings are great for a B tuning. Highly recommended. Completely changed the sound of the guitar.
Best strings, best service
Recently bought my second 12 pack of nickel wound baritone strings. The quality of these strings is only matched by the great customer service provided by Curt and his crew. They always get my order out quickly-no muss, no fuss. 5 stars all the way!
Warm, balanced, clear
Warm sound, instantly great feeling: no need for breaking in. Clarity in all registers, even dense chords and with effected sounds. Theses are the strings you've been searching for.
