The Dean Markley Helix PureNickel Electric complete the Helix series which already includes the nickel-plated Electric string sets.
The manufacturer explains that Pure Nickel strings are easier on the frets and gentler to the touch, creating less distortion for clearly distinguished notes within chords and high speed runs. Plus, the Helix patented Hyper-Elliptical compressed winding process allows for an increased number of wraps across the length of the string without altering its diameter, resulting in fuller tone, sustain and increased life span.
The Helix PureNickel Electric string sets available are the following:
