JULIAN, CALIF. — Sheptone’s Premium Nickel Wound Electric Guitar Strings are the new weapon of choice for Derek Day, the latest artist to endorse this new product line from the US pickup brand.

Day needed a set of strings that were tonally versatile and durable for his self-described “lead, licky, and riffy” electric guitar playing. He found exactly what he was looking for in Sheptone strings. 

“I tend to be quite aggressive when I approach the fretboard. That’s a big part of my tone. I need a set of strings that can really withstand that heavy attack. However, I am constantly trying to find new ways to surprise myself,” said Day. “I feel like Sheptone strings offer that space to be yourself yet grow through experimentation.”
