Canada's Own Guitar String Company
Premium guitar strings, made in Canada. For players who care about quality, consistency, and where their gear actually comes from.
Tone Forged in The North
Canada has one of the strongest music cultures on the planet. But for decades, every guitar string played here has been imported.
That just didn't sit right with us.
Built in The Nickel City
We set out to build something that should have existed a long time ago. A string company that's rooted here, made with intention, and focused on what players actually care about:
Tone. Feel. Consistency.
We're building NorthTone right here in Sudbury, Ontario — the Nickel Capital of the World.
We're Al & Amanda
Music has always been a constant in our lives. It's there in the background over morning coffee, on weekends at live shows, on road trips with a playlist we spent way too long putting together. We share a deep love for music and an even deeper respect for the people who make it. Getting to build something for that world, feels like exactly what we're supposed to be doing. Read more
Canadian Guitar Strings Built to Compete
We're not here to make an average string and slap a maple leaf on it.
We're building something that can genuinely hold its own against anything else on the market — in tone, in feel, and in consistency set after set. Every material we source, every decision we make, every standard we hold ourselves to comes back to that.
We just want to make a really great string. One that happens to be made here.
