Love that D'Addario have loyalty points on their packets of strings. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Reviewed *by E***D on 4 May 2026* Quality guitar strings, Highly recommended ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I refuse to use any other strings for electric guitars *by G***Y on 27 April 2025* I have been using D'Addario strings for electric guitar from early 1990s. I have found them to be the best value for money of all manufacturers that I have tried. They stay break-in relatively quickly, stay in-tune, intonation is consistent between sets, never rust, sound consistent for life of string, last longest of any string I have tried, never snap during tuning until end of life. ## Frequently Bought Together - D'Addario Guitar Strings - XL Nickel Electric Guitar Strings - EXL110BT - Perfect Intonation, Consistent Feel, Reliable Durability - For 6 String Guitars - 10-46 Regular Light Balanced Tension - Ernie Ball Regular Slinky Nickel Wound Electric Guitar Strings, 10-46 Gauge (P02221) - D'Addario Accessories Pro-Winder Guitar String Winder, Cutter, Bridge Pin Puller - All in One Guitar Tool - Black --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.ie/products/49157395-exl110bt-nickel-wound-electric-guitar-strings-balanced-tension-regular-light](https://www.desertcart.ie/products/49157395-exl110bt-nickel-wound-electric-guitar-strings-balanced-tension-regular-light) --- *Product available on Desertcart Ireland* *Store origin: IE* *Last updated: 2026-06-09*
