D'Addario Guitar Strings - NYXL Electric Guitar Strings, NYXL1046, Unrivaled Strength, Tuning Stability, Enhanced Mid-Range For 6 String Guitars, zwart, 10-46 Regular Light

Have been my go to string maker for the last 20 years. Love the tone and brightness.

These strings slap, I don't think I'll bother with any other brand or type. I got my guitar setup and the tech put Ernie Ball strings on and within a month of daily playing they sounded rubbish. I've had these on since June (it's October) and they are only now starting to occasionally go out of tune and sound a bit dull after months of being in tune. They also feel very nice to play on. Honestly amazing strings.

I've been playing guitar for 25+ years and these are by far the best strings I have ever used, just wish I'd tried them sooner. I have used ernie ball regular slinkys for longer than I care to remember, they are great initially but seem to tarnish and loose their brightness quite quickly which I thought was the case with all strings.......until I tried the NYXL's. I have had the NYXL's on now for a month and the strings have retained their brightness and show no signs of discolouration, the new string feeling only usually lasted about a week or so with my previous string choice. Using these makes it a pleasure to pick up the guitar, they are a little more expensive than their own and other manufacturers regular strings but their longevity is definitely worth the extra.

I really like these strings. I've been playing the guitar (badly!) for about 30 years and have tried a broad range of strings and I will definitely stick with these for a while. They feel and sound really good, and compared with the old Ernie Ball strings that I used to play they feel much slicker and malleable/bendable even at the same gauge. They also are staying good for quite some time, so I'm delighted with these. I might try also try some slightly thicker strings from the same series for down tuning. Despite the slightly high cost, I think these seem like excellent value for money.

I normally use the d'addario xl strings but read somewhere that these ones last longer so I thought I'd pay a bit extra and give them a try. They feel alright and the notes sound like they sustain a bit better when I bend them but wouldn't say its a significant improvement. Probably don't like them as much as the normal d'addario xl strings but that might just be because I'm more used to them ones. Only had them on a few days so can't comment on how long they last. I only gave 4 stars because I don't think there is a massive improvement to the normal xls and yet they cost twice as much! Will most likely just stick with my usual d'addario xls in the future as these aren't really worth the extra money imo. D'addario do make good quality guitar strings though so I do highly recommend the brand!

I hardly ever write reviews here but I am compelled to here - these are the best strings I've ever played in my life and I feel like a total mug for not trying them before. They feel great and sound absolutely beautiful. Bright, smooth, bell like tones. Super bendy and stay in tune. If anyone tells you that your guitar-side tone is just from the pickups alone they're a liar, these are night and day from the previous EB strings I had on.

Great quality 👌

Lovely sound
