Made with a high carbon steel core and nickel-plated steel wrap wire, XL Nickel strings have a bright, versatile tone, ideal for a wide variety of musical styles. 9.5-44 Super Light Plus strings are a good middle ground between 9s and 10s, and are good for balancing tension between varying scale length guitars.

Review: Affordable quality. - I'm happy with everything from D'addario, but honestly Ernie Ball or GHS are fine quality too. I buy a few of each and can never decide which I like best so I just stock up when they're on sale. The multi-pack is your best value once you decide which ones are for you. These get high marks for playability, excellent tone, tuning retention, and comfort. Highly recommended.
Review: King of strings - Stop the research, let this be the last review you read. These are the best strings money can buy if tone and feel our at the top of your priority list. Personally I could care less if mediocre sounding strings resist corrosion longer. I have tried coated & non coated in various gauges from the big names in strings. The 9.5' exl120+ strings are magical. The feel and control of this set are incredible. You can be effortlessly expressive in a way that feels harder to do with other sets, especially in larger gauges. There is absolutely no sacrifice in tone for anyone not playing Norwegian post hardcore doom metal. Tuning stability is excellent even with huge bends. Once tuning becomes difficult to maintain after a few months, order more. Recently I needed to change strings and couldn't find these I bought a pair of very popular coated strings. I was floored when I heard the difference. It sounded like a pillow was stuffed in front of the speaker and no variable other than the strings into blame. I was playing into a Helix using the same snapshot. I couldn't wait to cut the coated off!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What does 3D mean?**
A: It is just D'Addario's (SKU) way of naming the strings, it's a 3-pack of strings.  Their single packs are EXL-110 and the three-pack is just EXL-110-3D.Thanks, Jason

**Q: 6 stings included in 1 package or just 1 string?**
A: The strings are sold in sets of 6 strings.
 A set of strings for a guitar contains 6 strings...
Some music stores sell individual strings, but these strings are sold in full sets of 6. 
Each string set includes 6 strings: one each of the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, and 6th string (each string is a different gauge).

For example:
1-pack: contains 1 set of 6 strings 
3-pack: contains 3 sets of 6 strings (each of the 3 sets contains 6 strings)
10-pack: contains 10 sets of 6 strings (each of the 10 sets contains 6 strings) 

In other words, if you purchase the 3-pack, you will get 3 full sets of all 6 strings!

**Q: Would this work on a les paul special p90?**
A: Shure thing man it will work on almost everyguitar. The only exeption would be if you were playing a really low tuning these string might not be tight enough hope that helps

**Q: I bought balanced tension 9-40. I received regular 9-42s.**
A: Some sellers don't exactly know what balanced tension strings are so they probably though you just wanted 9's

*by S***E on March 15, 2026*

D'Addario strings are always excellent. I like the 3-pack option. I have never spent $20+ for a single pack of strings so I can't compare them to the boutique stuff that's out ther, but these work great for me and they never break.
