Regular Light, bulk pack of 25
The D'Addario EXL110 is the company's best-selling electric guitar string set – a Regular Light gauge (.010, .013, .017, .026, .036, .046) in nickel-plated steel roundwound construction, manufactured in New York and largely unchanged in specification since 1974. The B25 designation is a bulk pack of 25 sets, priced considerably below the equivalent individual purchase – aimed at players who restring frequently enough that buying in volume is simply the rational choice. Colour-coded ball ends run across the entire D'Addario XL range, and in a bulk pack context they earn their place: Each string is immediately identifiable when pulling a set from a box of 25.

Hex core and nickel wrap
D'Addario's hexagonal core wire – introduced in the early 1970s and proprietary to the XL series – provides a mechanical grip on the winding that a round core does not. The result is a winding that stays seated under tension, contributing to the set's tuning stability and consistent intonation across the full scale length. The nickel-plated steel wrap produces the tonal character the EXL110 is known for: a bright fundamental with a well-developed harmonic series, stronger in the upper mids and presence frequencies than a pure nickel wrap would be – versatile enough to work across clean and driven contexts without significant character shift, and present enough to cut through a dense mix when needed. Tension runs from 16.2lbs on the high E to a peak of 19.0lbs on the wound A, with a notably even distribution across the set that contributes to the balanced feel under the picking hand.

Who buys 25 sets at once?
The bulk pack format targets working guitarists, touring musicians, guitar technicians, and teaching studios that maintain several instruments. At Regular Light gauge, the EXL110 sits at the most neutral point in the XL range – light enough for comfortable bending and vibrato, heavy enough for rhythm work with gain without the strings feeling loose or imprecise. The honest gauge consideration is straightforward: Players who prefer a lighter touch or routinely play in dropped tunings may find .009s a better fit; those who want more mass under the pick for heavy rhythm work may prefer .011s. Both gauges are available in equivalent bulk packs.

About D'Addario
In the world of stringed instruments, D'Addario is one of the largest manufacturers of strings themselves. The origins of the brand date back to 17th century Italy, but production was moved to New York in 1905 and even today, the brand's strings are still made and further developed in the USA. D'Addario now offers something for every need, from simple and low-priced strings to coated models and Hex-core strings. Apart from strings, the range has been expanded to include various accessories for guitarists, and other brands such as Planet Waves, Evans, Rico, and Pro Mark, which manufacture accessories for various groups of instruments, now also belong to D’Addario.

Genres, styles, and the XL range
The .010-.046 gauge suits most electric guitar formats without modification – standard-scale single-cuts, semi-hollows, and hardtail or vibrato-equipped instruments all run the EXL110 as a default. The nickel-plated wrap handles clean and driven tones without significant character shift between the two – the set stays defined under high gain and retains enough warmth for clean Jazz or Blues work. For players whose gauge requirements differ, the D'Addario XL range covers a wide span of gauges, with .009 and .011 bulk packs also available from Thomann, for players who want the same value proposition at a different tension.
