Round Cores Provide Flexibility and Fat Tone

The Pure Blues strings utilize an old-school round core, which gives them a flexible feel that enhances string bendability and vibrato response. Their round cores also enable fatter, fuller tone with robust lows, rich mids and smooth highs. Built for resonance and sustain, the Pure Blues strings sing with vintage-style tone that harks back to the golden age of rock and roll.

Pure Nickel Wrap Wire Boosts Warmth and Punch

To achieve their signature throwback tone, the Pure BLues strings employ pure nickel wrap wire. Nickel wrap enhances warmth, richness and punch while smoothing out the high end. The pure nickel also helps the strings retain their tone longer by resisting corrosion. Together with the round cores, the nickel wrap wire produces strings with a distinct sonic character ideal for classic genres like blues, rock and jazz.

Compression Winding Boosts Output and Feel

The Pure Blues utilize an extra step of compression winding, where the strings are tightly wound to increase mass. This results in higher output, enhanced resonance and improved sustain. The compression winding also gives the strings an ultra-smooth feel that eases playability. Between their flexible round cores, warm nickel wrap wire and compression winding, the Pure Blues strings achieve a perfect balance of vintage tone and modern playability.
