The Gibson Les Paul Premium electric guitar strings are pure nickel wound for pure Les Paul tone. The legendary Les Paul worked with Gibson to develop these strings. The steel, hex-shaped core is wound with the purest nickel for a warm, smooth tone. To ensure the least amount of ambient noise possible, Les Paul specified the additional detail of silk-wrapped ends, which results in a truly vintage tone with studio-quality performance. Silk-wrapped ends eliminate ambient noise.
