Ever try Dunlop DEN1046 Nickel Wound Strings?

[LP Freak]

I got a free 3 pack with a set of pickups I ordered and was really impressed. They have a really smooth feel that I like and stretched out and stayed in tune really fast. So I started price shopping and ended up at Sweetwater. 12 packs for $30 shit, I bought 24 packs.

Anybody else use these?

That's good to know. I've been playing Fender 150 XL nickel wound for years. I ran out and bought some D'addarios XL's they were ok for a while but then they kept going out of tune on heavy bends and hard picking, NOT HAPPY! Thankfully I only bought 4 packs.

I've since found some newer Fender XL nickels that are close gauge wise and they are much better.

That's a great price on the Dunlops I will check them out!

Actually these are my next set of strings ! I have seen some pro players using them now and I’ve been wanting to switch up from the Ernie balls

If you like Slinky’s you’ll like these. They feel similar but a little more smooth. I’ve played Slinky’s for many years.

Awesome , that’s exactly what I’m looking for. And the only thing I’ve always wished for from the ernies
Thanks for the heads up!!

Thx for the heads up on these.....I was looking for a better string set that doesn't cost what the EBMM Paradigms are and still break regularly on me regardless of their guarantee. LoL.

I like hearing that they are that smooth feel and staying in tune. Thx for the tip!

Update...called Sweetwater and they did the bundles for me on 9-46! What a deal! 24 sets!

Damn, that is cheap AF, thanks for the heads up LP! Lifelong Slinky user here, so this is great news.

Think I will order some this week.

I’ve been using Dunlops for a couple years now. I first bought them just because they were cheap, but haven’t found a single reason to go back to more expensive stuff.
