Ernie Ball RPS Nickel Wound electric guitar strings are constructed with nickel-plated steel wrap wire wound around tin-plated hex-shaped steel core wire, delivering a balanced, familiar electric tone with reliable feel.
The RPS (Reinforced Plain Strings) feature a patented brass wire winding tightly wrapped around the ball-end lock twist of the plain strings. This reinforcement is designed to reduce slippage and breakage at the ball end, helping the plain strings last longer and maintain tuning stability compared to conventional plain strings.
This construction makes RPS Nickel Wound strings a dependable choice for players who want consistent performance, improved durability at the ball end, and classic nickel wound response across a variety of electric guitar styles.
