{"title":"Power Groove Pure Nickel","description":"\u003cp\u003ePower Groove is the warm end of the S.I.T. electric range. A pure nickel wrap over a high-tempered hex core rolls off the hard edge you get from nickel-plated or stainless steel, leaving smoother highs, warmer mids and a rounder overall voice. It is the set for blues, classic rock and anything vintage-leaning.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eChoosing a gauge\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn standard tuning, .009–.042 (PN942 Extra Light) is the lightest and easiest to bend, and .010–.046 (PN1046 Light) is the balanced middle. For a light top with more weight underneath, .009–.046 (PN946 Rock N Roll) and .010–.052 (PN1052 Heavy Bottom) add low-end depth without stiffening the top. Heavier players and lower tunings are better served by .011–.050 (PN1150 Medium Light) or .012–.052 (PN1252 Medium), which also suit the thicker, jazzier tones pure nickel does well.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eGauges\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSet\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eGauges\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e.009–.042 — PN942 Extra Light\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e.009 .011 .016 .024pn .032pn .042pn\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e.009–.046 — PN946 Rock N Roll\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e.009 .011 .016 .026pn .036pn .046pn\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e.010–.046 — PN1046 Light\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e.010 .013 .017 .026pn .036pn .046pn\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e.010–.052 — PN1052 Heavy Bottom\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e.010 .013 .017 .030pn .042pn .052pn\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e.011–.050 — PN1150 Medium Light\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e.011 .014 .018 .028pn .038pn .050pn\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e.012–.052 — PN1252 Medium\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e.012 .016 .024pn .032pn .042pn .052pn\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ccode\u003epn\u003c\/code\u003e marks a pure nickel wound string.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow Power Groove compares to our other electric sets\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePower Groove is the warmest roundwound we make for electric.
