Pyramid Nickel Classics JHI 010-038

Because of the logistic issues of certain JH labelled american string sets I read some very good reviews about these Pyramid JHI string sets, so I ordered 3 sets at Thomann’s, who sent them so fast that they arrived at Sylvester.

I unpacked a set and put them on Tweety, that is my Micawber Hot Rod Telecaster which let my eardrums tweet everytime I switch on my Mesa Boogie Nomad.

After carefully following the instruction to bend in an 90 degree angle before cutting every wound string, I spun my Spinning Wheel with the new German wool.

The result was really flabbergasting!
The strings were almost directly in tune.
The resonance on my big Tele body was remarkable.
The time that the low E string kept on buzzing after picking it seemed almost eternal!
The Jimi sounds the strings produce on my Telecaster are amaaaayzing, even better than the American Jimi strings on my Jimi stratocaster.

My adviise therefore to you all good guitar players; buy these Pyramid JHI’s. !!

For this few euro’s they are the closest thing to Jimi Heaven available.
And Thomann has this super duper German product in stock, so no waiting 4 or 5 monts waiting for the American equivalent!

Thanks for reading and Thomann please give me my voucher because I ordered another 5 sets but now I need another Tweety also because it’s gonna wear down real soon.....😅

I use them on a G&L s-500 Tribute and they allow me to reach Jimi Hendrix's favorite setup -Eb tuning at 432Hz with medium/high action. The bendings are stellar, the strings stay in tune, and they last for months even with daily use. Contrary to belief, the thinner bass strings sound better and full through single coil pikups as they are less stiff and more bassy. In general, besides the easier bends, you get a balanced sound with deep basses, good attack on trebles, and expressive mids.
