D'AddarioGuitar Strings - XT Nickel Coated Electric Guitar Strings - XTE1046-3P - Extended String Life with Natural Tone & Feel - For 6 String Guitars - 10-46 Regular Light, 3-Pack

Best strings I have used. I used to use XLs which sound great but don’t last and sometimes I would get a bad string in a pack. I switched to NYXLs and they are great but a bit bright. Tried XS and they feel slippery and sound dead. The XT strings are like NYXLs in terms of feel and quality but sound like XLs so they are perfect.

First purchase of these and very pleased to date...sound bright and punchy...will see how long they last tone wise...

Very good string, definitely not the best Probably worth the money if you get them for about 10 bucks a set. Been playing since 1982 tried just about every brand and style of string for an electric these are good but they're not the best. Their NYXLs are actually better in my opinion The best string out there is the m steels from Ernie Ball. I would rank these in the top five They're definitely good strings and worth the money if you can get them for 12 or less. You can't go wrong with these They're pretty damn good.....

These 09/42 D'Addario Guitar strings are a great addition to my style of playing.The gauge is just right for those string bends on soulful leads.They stay in tune when you stretch them out.They last a long time depending how much you play and clean afterwards with a microfiber cloth.You might like a different gauge depending on how you play but these are just right for me.The price is much better than the guitar shops in town.I'll purchase again !

The strings feel and sound great. They don't feel like coated strings, even though they technically are. I would highly recommend these on guitars that aren't your main guitar, as they will last a long time without needing to change the strings. When the strings get old they start to feel plastic and rattle, but they don't quite corrode like typical strings would, and they don't start to sound noticeably dull, but also not as bright as when the guitar is strung. These last around twice as long as normal strings, and can be pushed for longer if you really want to. These strings are great, but the NYXL's sound and play better to me, and have more gauge options. as far as I can tell, the heaviest the XT's get is a 52, which is fine if you don't plan to go below drop C, but NYXL has options that go all the way down to a 60, and also has options for 7 and 8 string guitars. I wish the XT's had these options. The XT's are great for what they are though, and I would highly recommend them if they meet your use case

always happy with D’Addario Strings.used this with PRS SE Custom 24, no problem. Didnt have to do anything with the stock nut.It definitely feels tighter than 10s.

If I had the money I'd always buy these. Unlike other coated strings these feel totally natural and last a long time. Great for people like me with sweaty hands. If I can't get my hands on these then I go for the NYXL ones. These are top tier and I will never switch back to Ernie Ball.Edit: I'm now on my third pack and I'm never going back. I wish there were an option for subscribe and save like there are for the 9-42 NYXL strings but oh well. I get these about once every 3 to 4 months just for the one guitar I use these on. I like using these on my Jazzmaster. Despite it's scale length being the same as all other Fender guitars like the Strat the string still has to travel further from the bridge to peg and the high E is prone to breakage.

Very pleased with the tone. Allowing light and faster action. No more gorilla grip
