About D'Addario Electric Guitar String

What sets the XS Nickel Plated Steel Electric Guitar Strings apart is their exceptional durability and high-quality construction, making them a reliable choice for musicians. These regular light, 10-56 gauge strings are designed specifically for 7-string electric guitars, offering versatility and affordability without compromising on performance.

Crafted by D'Addario, a brand synonymous with superior musical instruments and accessories, these strings are coated with a groundbreaking XS coating. This innovative technology ensures the strings have an extended lifespan, providing a smooth, fast feel without dampening their outstanding tone.

Constructed with a NY Steel core and reformulated nickel-plated steel wrap wire, these strings are not only robust but also offer superior tuning stability. The Fusion Twist technology further enhances their strength, ensuring richer harmonics, greater clarity, and remarkable definition with every sweep, slide, and bend.

The XS Nickel Plated Steel Electric Guitar Strings are more than just strings; they are a testament to D'Addario's commitment to innovation. The ultra-thin film coating on every wound string and unique polymer treatment on the plain steels offer the highest level of protection for maximum life and an uncommonly smooth feel.

The precision-drawn hexagonal core, a pioneering innovation by D'Addario, allows the wrap wire to grip the core for superior dimensional stability, enhanced durability, and precise intonation. The fusion twist feature prevents slack in the twist from detuning the string, ensuring maximum tuning stability and higher break strength.

Processed in D'Addario's exclusive wire facility in Farmingdale, New York, the NY Steel used in these strings delivers unmatched tuning stability and superior break resistance. The in-house wire drawing machines produce musical instrument wire to exact specifications, ensuring high performance in every string.

In essence, the XS Nickel Plated Steel Electric Guitar Strings are a perfect blend of durability, quality, and innovation, designed to deliver extraordinary sounds and exact standards.
