Alloys 101 - Your Tone Palette

String alloys have a dramatic impact on your tone, feel and string life. D'Addario's diverse selection of electric string alloys include:

Nickel-plated Steel — Renowned for their distinctive, bright tone, XL nickel-plated steel is the industry standard for many genres and playing styles.

Steel — Preferred by many rock, metal, country and jazz players for their super-bright, crunchy tone and highly textured feel.

Pure Nickel — Containing lower magnetic properties than Nickel-plated Steel strings, Pure Nickel is the alloy preferred by many vintage enthusiasts.

Choose Your Wrap Wire

Round Wound — The most popular and universal construction, Round Wound strings deliver the traditional textured feel most players are familiar and comfortable with.

Flat Wound — Offering a damped, mellow tone often preferred for jazz and twang, D'Addario Chromes utilize a flattened stainless steel "ribbon" wire polished to an ultra-smooth feel.

Half Round - Delivering a smooth feel similar to flat wounds, D'Addario Half Rounds maintain the flexibility and tension of a round wound string.
