The quintessential sound of British guitar – Rotosound’s early electric guitar strings which were the choice of music legends.

This range originates from the sixties and offers a distinctly bright tone with increased presence over its nickel-plated counterparts. As British Steels are nickel free, they’re aptly suited to players with a nickel allergy.

With such high iron content in their ferritic stainless steel covers, British Steels offer a clear and bright sound that still packs a punch. Serious twang is at hand with cleaner amp settings but turn up the overdrive to unleash unmistakable upper harmonics and presence unique to steel strings.
