Fender Classic Core NPS 255L Electric Guitar Strings (9-42)
Fender Classic Core NPS 255L is a time-tested choice for guitarists seeking that authentic, bright, and punchy Fender sound. These strings are made from steel and coated with nickel (Nickel-Plated Steel - NPS). This combination is considered an industry standard because it unites two best qualities: the magnetic properties of steel (which provide a strong signal to pickups) and the softness and warmth of nickel.
This set is of "Light" gauge: from .009 to .042. This means the strings are quite thin and soft. They are ideal for beginners (less harsh on fingers) and for lead guitarists who frequently use string bending techniques, as thinner strings are much easier to bend than thicker ones.
Key Features
