GHS's Eric Johnson Signature Series Nickel Rockers in a light gauge are strings developed with the Grammy-winning guitarist known for his meticulous, detail-obsessed approach to tone across blues, rock, and instrumental fusion playing. Nickel Rockers use a nickel-plated steel wound construction that GHS positions as a balance between the brightness of pure nickel and the warmth of nickel-plated designs, and the light gauge set suits Johnson's fluid legato and expressive bending technique. Johnson has spoken extensively over his career about how sensitive his ear is to small changes in strings and setup, making his direct signature involvement in this set notable rather than a simple licensing arrangement.
