Hey all. Im not 100% sure but i may have an allergic reaction to nickel! I normally use d addarios for Electric, and they are nickel - So im looking for non nickel electric strings? Haven’t looked into it yet but wondering if anyone knows of some?

Tricky part about nickel is that I understand stainless steel has nickel, generally, but in smaller amounts. I’m not personally aware of any but I’m sure someone will know.

There are several coated strings available. Elixir, D'Addario, and DR are some that come to mind. There are probably other brands as well. I would think the coating would give you some protection.

I discovered I had a sensitivity to nickel after many years of playing! Now I use strictly use Ernie Ball Cobalt strings - and they last really long too!
