rip your fingers off for music

insomnij 20.02.2020

the strings replaced my old 10-46 set.
The difference is of course huge, both in sound and in sensations.
I will not talk about which ones are better, because they are different. It is better to tell about your feelings, and there are enough of them.
I'll start with the most obvious and this is that after the first two days of the game, your fingers just fall off. The game has become quite tough, but I think I can overcome it, because the sound that comes out in the end is just Bombay.
In short, if you want to be tougher, put 11 strings. And even on your Telecaster, I chose them with the expectation that I will play in open G. I Think for this system the strings will be perfect.
Cons, they are purely subjective, for me they are not, but perhaps someone these strings will be too thick. Again, this choice should be with a clear understanding of what you want in the end.
I am 100% satisfied with the purchase. The quality is excellent. And the price tag for conducting such experiments is not too high.
Thanks to tomann for the low price, this makes it more affordable.

Finally the quest ends ..... or does it?

Bockwurst 05.11.2019

I have been trying out a few different brands and gauges for a long time. I know, I know, everyone does but I always went back to Blue Steels because they were perfect for me, alas they did not have a set that I wanted so I had to mix.
These strings from D'addario are nearly the same as those blue steels but with the right set.
Tone is great! The feel when sliding up and down is great! You can put these on and tune them with a Floyd and the next day they only need minor adjustment, no more stretching for weeks and retuning endlessly! Okay, a bit of exaggeration but in a nutshell, they rock!
I haven't come across a negative yet. I've been using them for about four months in rehearsal and on stage, not one broke down -and I (ab)use my Floyd to the limit-.
They stay in tune and keep the feeling of newish strings.
So, is it the end of that quest? Time will tell ....

Very Nice

Milesy 31.01.2018

Perhaps like you reading this review, you are skeptical as to whether spending more on NYXL strings will give you 'more' than a standard set of XL's. My answer is yet. These are a great pack of strings. They offer a similar sound to the XL's admittedly as my guitar still sounds like a guitar.

BUT. The major difference I noticed was lifespan. I gig regularly and rehearse equally as much as these things do not dull, lose their high end or lose their ability to stay in tune. Furthermore, from putting them on a guitar new, they seem to settle down and stabilise very quickly.

I have them on my main 'go-to' guitar and couldn't be happier.

Amazing durability

Guitariste59 01.10.2019

I was apprehensive at first due to the price, but started to read all the reviews on how these strings never break. They were right. If you have a heavy right hand like me & tend to beat your strings to death, I highly recommend these! I've been faithful to D'addario for years, and these new strings are amazing!
