| | | | Daddario's I'm pretty sure use only hex cores you might want to check out their prosteels I've had good luck with them. |

That's used in a majority of cases. It's safe to assume that unless the string description actually mentions a round core that it is a hexcore. |

D'Addario uses hex core exclusively so their strings and any they make for others are hex core. They make (or at least used to make) D'Angelico, Ernie Ball, and Pedulla.

Besides a couple of the DR models there are some Dean Markleys (I think they are Rocco sigs), and others I forget since I'm more into hex. I just mentioned what I said earlier, because to ferret them out you merely need to look at the specs which will always specifically MENTION that the less-common round core is a feature. |

I guess I've learned something yet again.
