Detail 01
Nickel-plated steel
The standard electric winding. Brighter and stiffer than pure nickel, and magnetic enough to drive any regular pickup.

DunlopNickel Plated Steel Electric Guitar Strings Medium 3-Pack
1/2
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Three sets of nickel-plated steel electric strings in medium gauge, bought at once. For players who change strings often and already know they want mediums.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Gigging players who restring every few weeks
- Anyone keeping spare sets in the case
- Players already settled on a medium-gauge electric set
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Acoustic, classical, or bass players — these are electric only
- Players who want lighter gauge for easy bending
- Anyone still experimenting with gauges across brands
What matters in use
The specifications, translated
Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.
Detail 02
Medium gauge
More tension than a light set. Fuller low end and a firmer feel, but bends take more finger strength.
Detail 03
3-pack
Per-set cost drops versus buying singles, but you are committed to this gauge for three changes.
Detail 04
Electric guitar strings
Steel core designed for magnetic pickups. Will not produce usable volume on an acoustic-electric with a piezo alone.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Strings only — no winder, cutters, or picks included
- 02Moving up to mediums usually means a truss rod and intonation adjustment
- 03Higher tension can require nut slot work on some guitars
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Will these fit my guitar?
They fit standard 6-string electrics with either a fixed bridge or tremolo. Check that your bridge accepts ball-end strings, which nearly all electrics do.
02How long do three sets last?
That depends entirely on how much you play and how much your hands sweat. A player gigging weekly might use all three in a few months; a casual player, a year or more.
03Can I use these on a 7-string?
No. This is a 6-string set and does not include a low B.
04Are mediums harder to play than lights?
Yes. Higher tension means more effort to fret and bend, and a slightly stiffer feel under the picking hand. The payoff is a fuller tone and more attack.
