DESCRIPTION

D'Addario XL Nickel Wound strings are the standard against which all other electric guitar strings are measured. Revered by players everywhere since 1974, they remain D'Addario's best-selling electric set — and for good reason. A high carbon steel core paired with nickel-plated steel wrap wire gives XL Nickel its bright, versatile voice, equally at home across rock, blues, jazz, country, metal and everything in between.

The EXL116 is a 11-52 Medium Top/Heavy Bottom hybrid set. The lighter top strings keep bends and vibrato comfortable, while the heavier bottom strings deliver a booming, tight low end — ideal if you play in lower tunings or just want more authority from your riffs without giving up lead playability.

Like all D'Addario electric guitar strings, XL Nickel sets are built around the company's proprietary Hex-Core, which ensures perfect intonation, consistent feel from set to set, and reliable durability. Each set arrives in a recyclable VCI bag that includes a code you can register to earn Players Circle points.

XL Nickel strings are made in the USA, drawn to D'Addario's exacting specifications at their New York production facility.
