Pyramid Monel Classics Round Core Electric Guitar Strings

Hello everyone, I own an early 2000's Fender Japan TL71-58 (a.k.a. 1971 Telecaster Reissue) which was heavily modified electronicly. The guitar has Bare Knuckle Blackguard 68 Stagger PU's set which is very bright, focused, percussiv and ferocious (which is really authentic sound for this era's Fenders). The problem was to find the right set of strings to get a balanced yet clear sound. I've tried several type of strings: Pure Nickel hex cores (Tamed the highs but less presence as well) Nickel Plated Steel hex cores (Ear piercing) Titanium Coated hex cores (Ditto as NPS) Then I read about Pyramid Strings and their Monel Classic Round Cores and how they might be the missing link between PN and NPS. I've ordered 2 sets of .011-.048 Specials and finally got them yesterday. Immediately, I've strung my guitar (working according to instructions as round core strings need special way of handling). At first, it was a bit strange for me. The feel, the sound, etc. etc. But, I've also read that the strings need about a day to settle in after stinging, so I waited and... lo and behold!!! It looks like my guitar received a new life. The sound is bright (but not abrasive). Definition is excelent and the strings are really easy on the fingers. And Last but not least, this is how an early 70's style Telecaster ought to sound like. Finally, I believe that my search is over. Highly, highly recommended.

Great strings

Fat, round, smooth, no harshness, great string definition neck or bridge. I Like the tones these strings produce from this guitar. Ibanez Japan JSM100 stock IMHO Tends to have a little too much high end with nickel wound steel, too flat with pure nickel, these are as goldi locks said "just right" in between those. I like monel alloy strings. Play mostly clean through Klon Clone, j rockett blue note, Evans AH200, weber california 112, jazz, slight edge of breakup occasionally.
