Long Lasting Premium Performance
XS Nickel strings are engineered to deliver the longest lifespan of any D'Addario electric guitar string. The advanced XS ultra thin film coating protects the strings from corrosion and wear while maintaining a natural playing feel and vibrant tonal response.
Unlike heavier coatings that can dampen tone, XS technology preserves clarity, articulation and sustain for consistent performance over extended playing time.
Powerful Modern Electric Guitar Tone
The reformulated nickel plated steel wrap wire produces a bold, articulate sound with increased output, excellent bite and strong sustain. Whether playing clean passages, aggressive rhythm parts or expressive lead lines, XS Nickel strings deliver rich harmonics and exceptional note definition.
Perfect for modern 7 string players who require clarity across both extended low tunings and high lead registers.
Superior Strength And Tuning Stability
Constructed with a premium NY Steel core and Fusion Twist technology, XS Nickel strings provide enhanced durability and impressive tuning stability. Designed to stay in tune significantly longer than standard electric strings, they are ideal for demanding stage use, recording sessions and aggressive playing styles.
The enhanced break strength also provides additional confidence for heavy picking, wide bends and extended performance sessions.
Smooth Fast Playing Feel
The XS coating provides a smooth and fast playing surface that feels comfortable under the fingers while reducing friction during slides, bends and rapid technical playing.
Combined with the balanced 10-56 Regular Light gauge, this set offers excellent flexibility and tight low end response for modern 7 string performance.
Designed For 7 String Guitars
This Regular Light 10-56 set expands D'Addario’s popular electric string gauge with an additional low bass string, delivering balanced tension and excellent articulation for 7 string guitars across a wide range of tunings and playing styles.
