I've never owned anything like that, but use them (10s or 11s) successfully on several different acoustic guitars. They are quiet compared to round wound strings, or even the flat wound elixirs, but you don't screech all around the neck at all. Hope that helps. **Q: would these work for an acoustical guitar?** A: It's all about the tone you want. These strings sound "different" from typical acoustic strings, not as bright and not as loud, so I put them on my acoustic guitar to give them a whirl and I instantly thought I should take them off. However, after playing them for a few days I started to "work with them" and I have become a fan of these strings. They are silky smooth and are a joy to play. My fingers feel happy after playing and I have found new sounds that only these strings can produce on my acoustic. These strings have made me play cleaner and more volume-balanced (no notes "stick out" from the others) in a song unless I want them to. I have two acoustic guitars and one of them will always have these strings on! I have become partial to the unique sound these strings deliver. **Q: would the 10-48 strings sit in my 10-46 guitar?** A: Yes You might want to file the 48 notch if it seems small. I always use graphite to help with friction. ## Frequently Bought Together - D'Addario Guitar Strings - XL Chromes Electric Guitar Strings - Flat Wound - Polished for Ultra-Smooth Feel and Warm, Mellow Tone - ECG23 - Extra Light, 10-48, 1-Pack - D'Addario Guitar Strings - XL Half Rounds Electric Guitar Strings - Semi-Flat Wound - Bright Tone, Smooth Feel, Reduced Finger Noise - EHR310 - Regular Light, 10-46 - D'Addario Guitar Strings - XL Nickel Electric Guitar Strings - EXL110-3D - Perfect Intonation, Consistent Feel, Reliable Durability - For 6 String Guitars - 10-46 Regular Light, 3-Pack --- ## 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.kg/products/1363621-daddario-guitar-strings-xl-chromes-electric-guitar-strings-flat-wound](https://www.desertcart.kg/products/1363621-daddario-guitar-strings-xl-chromes-electric-guitar-strings-flat-wound) --- *Product available on Desertcart Kyrgyzstan* *Store origin: KG* *Last updated: 2026-07-08*
