GHSNickel Rockers Lo Tune SRV Set
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Pure nickel electric guitar strings in a heavier, down-tuned-friendly SRV gauge. For blues and rock players who tune to Eb or lower.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Players who keep a guitar tuned down a half or whole step
- Blues and vintage rock tones on single-coil or humbucker guitars
- Anyone who wants string tension back after tuning below standard
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Standard-tuning players who prefer light gauges and easy bends
- Fast shredders who want minimal finger effort
- Acoustic, bass, or classical guitars
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
Lo Tune set
Gauges run heavier than a standard set so tension stays firm when you drop the tuning.
Detail 03
SRV set
Built around a heavy blues setup: stiffer feel, thick attack, strings that push back on big bends.
Detail 04
Electric guitar strings
Magnetic pickups read these. They will not work on an acoustic or classical instrument.
Detail 05
$13.35 per set
Standard single-set price. Buying several at once is the usual way to stock up.

Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Do I have to tune down to use these?
No, but that is the point of the set. In standard tuning they will feel stiff and pull the neck harder than a normal set.
02Will these fit my Strat?
Yes. They are standard electric guitar strings and work with any six-string electric, including hardtail and tremolo bridges.
03Pure nickel or nickel-plated?
Pure nickel wrap. That means a warmer, slightly softer top end and a smoother feel under the fingers than nickel-plated steel.
04Do I need a setup after installing?
If you are moving up in gauge, yes. Check truss rod relief and reset intonation, or the guitar will play sharp up the neck.
