There is no better, it's just a matter of taste. Stainless will be a little brighter but they will last a little longer than the nickel in my experience

I prefer nickel wound over stainless with metal necks. Stainless is a little to bright for me.

Nickel gives me better tone and the bar slides over them easier. Very Happy

After spending thousands on a guitar, amp, seat, misc. There is no money left for strings. Very Happy
