Gauges 12-15-24-32-42-52.

Pure Blues electric guitar strings are designed by DR Strings with pure nickel wrap wire, roundwound upon round cores. While this is a slow, expensive method of string making, it does produce a guitar string acclaimed for increased sustain, vintage tone, and great low tones for playing music from rhythm to lead. The extra step of winding pure nickel around a round core gives Pure Blues strings a punch that players say they are surprised to get in a vintage string. Sounds great on any guitar!

    Looking to drop to E flat on my Strat and keep action low with no fret buzz. I use DR Pure Blues on all my Electrics ... 10s, 11s, and now 12s ... Great warm sound.

  • A little heavy dosnt hurt.

    I actually got these because the GC I live by ran out of my usual Diadarrio 11's and so I got these. I didnt think that my second choice could sound soo good. The bass is punchy and loud, and the treble is still clear and defined even though its a higher gauge. The feel is like playing on strings that havent been streched yet; soft, easy bending(but without the tuning issue). Its safe to say that Diadarrio is going to become my fallback.
