Product Information
UltraCore™ Nickel-Plated Steel bullet-end strings are built for guitarists who refuse to compromise on tone, tuning stability, or performance. At their foundation is a reinforced UltraCore™ high-carbon steel wire that provides exceptional pitch control and strength under the most demanding playing conditions. The premium nickel-plated steel wrap offers refined clarity and warmth, while the patented bullet-end design-created specifically for Stratocaster® guitars-ensures superior sustain and rock-solid tuning that holds up through extended sessions.
Available in two gauges to suit your playing style: 4250L 3-Pack features .009, .011, .016, .024, .032, .042 for lighter tension and easier bending, while 4250R 3-Pack offers .010, .013, .017, .026, .036, .046 for fuller tone and increased output. The hex core construction maintains precise intonation and balanced tension across all strings, giving you consistent response from the high E to the low E. Colour-coded ball ends make string changes quick and straightforward, so you spend less time restringing and more time playing.
These American-made strings are engineered for higher break resistance and reduced retuning frequency, making them ideal for both studio work and live performance. The combination of premium materials and precision manufacturing results in strings that maintain their tonal characteristics longer while providing the elasticity and strength needed for aggressive playing styles.
