Designed for 6-string electric guitars with a light top/heavy bottom gauge (10-52), these strings use Fusion Twist technology and a NY Steel core for superior tuning stability and break strength. Made in the USA, they offer bright, versatile tones suitable for all musical styles, backed by a strong player rewards program. ## Description D'Addario XT Electric Nickel Plated Steel strings combine our most popular electric guitar alloy with an advanced corrosion resistance treatment on every string in the set, preserving the natural tone and feel of uncoated strings. Available for 6 string electric guitar ranging from super light to light top/heavy bottom gauges. Review: It's Durable! - I purchased the XTE0942 almost 3months ago and up to now its still going strong. I have to commend on the durability of the strings (considering the usage is more than twice on a weekly basis). No visible rust so far and the pitch of the string has a good mellow tune to it. Ideal for personal sounds or at a crowd. I would definitely but this product again. Highly recommended.

I hate when a new string breaks! You probably can order a single string, but it's usually more "cost effective" to order another complete set of strings. You might want to check w/ a local music store; they may offer you a better price on single strings. **Q: I use nyxl’s & love them. how do these feel compared to nyxls? are they stiffer from the coating?** A: No, they feel like normal strings. And they lasted a lot longer. **Q: are they supposed to be slippery? I am trying to learn guitar but trying a D chord results in my 3rd finger sliding** A: According to D'Addario ... "XT strings feature an extended lifespan treatment on every string in the set, preserving the natural tone and feel of uncoated strings". Personally, I don't find them noticeably 'slippery'. I put mine on around December 10th, 2019 and they still feel clean & smooth. These are the first coated string I have tried. I understand other brands may be more 'slippery' than these. I can't exactly see what you are trying to do, so I can't comment on that. **Q: Do either the xte1149 or the xse1149 have a wound g string (.018)?** A: no ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ It's Durable! *by F***. on 8 January 2023* I purchased the XTE0942 almost 3months ago and up to now its still going strong.
