NICKEL WOUND, MADE IN USA Electro-Harmonix Electric Guitar Strings are custom-designed to our specifications and made in the USA. Each wound string is precision wrapped with round nickel-plated steel onto a high carbon, hexagon-shaped steel core. The plain strings are made from the same high carbon steel as the hex cores.
