Dunlop heavy core heaviest guitar strings

Kaos13, 10.06.2013

These are great guitar strings for guitarists who like to play in groove/ thrash metal. It is really good for drop tunings or low tunings such as standard B or A. The string gauges are 012, 016, 020, 032, 042, and 054 for the 6th string. The heavy gauge makes it great for low tunings because it increases the tension to provide a good balance. I have been using these strings on an esp viper 100fm guitar tuned in standard B and it sounds great for playing stuff like soulfly. It takes some time to get used to the new strings if you have been used to playing with extra light strings. The price is decent considering the high quality and durability on those strings. But of course the durability will all depend on how often and for how long you play you guitar.

Good for Les Paul

Retribution, 05.01.2019

Stringed a Les Paul with these, and then set the neck (took a few days to set completely) due to the high tension they yield.

Sounds beautiful.

The best choice for heavy metal and not only

23.01.2017

These are the best strings I have ever used, long lasting, good sounding strings. They have a very nice midrange, they sound very open compared to other strings and they are perfect for people who prefer higher tension strings. If you're into hard rock or heavy metal, or if you're simply a blues fan that likes an open, tight sound, this is what you're looking for.

The sound was amazing... While it lasted.

......, 10.06.2016

These strings are one of the cleanest sounding I have had. But they lasted very little. So if you have money to buy many, this is absolutely amazing!
