D'Addario NYXL0942 Electric Guitar Strings, Super Light 09-42 | NYXL electric guitar strings deliver enhanced tuning stability, greater strength, dynamic range, and bright tone.

I've tried D'Addario, Ernie Ball, Elixir, Fender, XL, XS, Paradigm, Stainless, different gauges, and these are by far the best strings out of the bunch. I now buy in bulk. The tension is great for good bends, but it also provides a good all-around sound from the highs to the lows. They also hold tuning stability amazingly. If you're having trouble picking up a good set of strings. Try these before you give up.

Love these strings. Last long and sound great.

They are a little smaller in diameter which makes them easier to play as a beginner. You sacrifice sound as they are a tiny bit tinny. Still well worth it.

My favorite strings at this point are also from D'addario, but they are the pure nickel EPN version. NYXL seem equally as easily bendable, and good sounding but a bit clearer. These are pleasingly clear strings. I would say they are bright compared to the EPN pure nickel, but more like CLEAR with just a subtle hint of midrange bump in the right place to bring out the sound of your guitar. I almost can't decide if I like these enough to keep using them, but they seem to be pretty physically strong & they didn't need any stretching to keep tune. (although I did stretch them out of habit & for good measure). The prices for NYXL stings at this time is anywhere from around $10-25 per set, although they seem to hover around $15-20 at retailers in my neck of the woods. (SoCal). If I could pick these up for around $20 for 3 sets, I would probably make these my go-to. But I really prefer the smoother sound of EPN pure nickels (although only by a little-bit). Over all I would definitely recommend these strings, but I also recommend to shop around for the best bargain, as these seem to be over-priced in many places. I would say these are great strings at $7-10, but average at the $15-20 range. A fair price for these in my opinion is $12-15, since they are new. I think these should settle in at $7-10 when the price settles. I don't know how long it will take for these to begin to dull, I have used them for about 3 days & they are still bright as new.

Great string at a great price

I’ve tried a lot of strings, but I keep coming back to D’Addario NYXL Electric Guitar Strings. They hold tuning incredibly well and last noticeably longer than most other sets I’ve used. The tone stays bright without going dead too quickly, and they feel solid under bends without breaking easily.  Pros: • Excellent tuning stability • Long lifespan compared to standard strings • Strong, hard to break even with heavy bending • Clear, punchy tone Cons: • More expensive than typical strings • Slightly rougher feel compared to coated options Overall, worth the extra cost if you want durability and consistency.

I’ve tried so many different strings. These to me feel the best. Durable

Okay I am 77 years old and was away from guitar for couple of years for medical issues. Had trouble reforming the calluses but kept going on acoustic to make some progress along with isopropyl lol. The strat was staring at me hanging on the wall so I figured why not try it with some new slinkys after I modified strat to floating bridge.That was an adventure but strings took forever stay in tune. IT TOOK 2 DAYS FOR THE XL'S to lock in. Using them on Wicked Game song and WoW the tone, brightness and ease of playing is astounding. If your new at playing or an old part like me, Buy Them Now.

Keine Ahnung wie viele unterschiedlichen Saiten ich bisher getestet habe, aber ich komme immer wieder auf die NYXL zurück. Für mich von Spielgefühl und von Sound perfekt. Für mich auch besser als beschichtete Saiten.
