D'Addario Guitar Strings - XL Nickel Electric Guitar Strings - EXL120 - Perfect Intonation, Consistent Feel, Reliable Durability - For 6 String Guitars - 09-42 Super Light

I've been playing D'Addario strings for over 30 years now and I've bought hundreds of sets over the years. I've tried many others in the past, but now I just figure why bother, nothing has ever exceeded them, and usually other brands come up short. D'Addario strings never seem to have problems like excessive breakage, old/tarnished strings, or just inferior tone/quality that I have experienced with others. I buy both acoustic and electric strings, and also bass strings, although acoustic is my main instrument.If I have one tip for you, it's this. If you are wondering why you can't get the vintage sound of 70s acoustic guitars or earlier, BUY THE D'ADDARIO 80/20 ACOUSTIC STRINGS. Personally I live for this sound and I consider it the ultimate and most superior tone of tones. If you want the modern acoustic sound (1980s onward), then sure, buy Phosphor Bronze or the coated strings. But those 80/20 D'Addario strings are the holy grail imo.I also consider these strings (EXL140 light top/heavy bottom) to be the pinnacle of electric strings, but honestly, if you play only heavy metal, maybe try the Pro Steels, and if you only play blues, maybe try the Pure Nickel instead of Nickel Wound. But these to me are the Goldilocks strings, perfect, right down the middle, balanced, tough, stay in tune really well. You can't go wrong. The heavy bottom really helps eliminate string buzz and gives a solid strong bass, while the light top allows for great bending and perfect playability.

awesome all purpose guitar strings. feel good in the fingers. can play a vast variety of genres with these strings.

I use these to tune to C# standard, and they do the job just fine. I use Daddario on all by basses and guitars, and have never had to think twice.

They last longer than most economy strings I've tried.

I finally got the strings and they are great but it makes no logistical sense to buy a USA made product that was shipped to Germany before being sent back to the US. It takes fuel and resources and the burning of hydrocarbons to transport goods. And the shipment was handled by a company in Ausrtalia. The carbon footprint was greater to shipp the product than to make it and send from the US manufacturer.

Buy these

The best strings for any guitar
