## Overview

D'Addario NYXL1149 electric guitar strings are premium nickel-plated steel strings designed for professional players seeking superior tuning stability (131% better), enhanced mid-range presence, and 40% greater strength. Made in the USA, these medium gauge (11-49) strings deliver durability and sonic clarity, perfect for cutting through any mix while lasting longer between changes.

## Description

Unrivaled tuning stability and up to 40% stronger than standard strings. Premium nickel-plated steel wrap wire enhances mid-range presence to cut through the mix.

Review: The gold standard - Best strings Ive ever used. Doesn't break plus they sound and feel great
Review: Good clear tone, without being too bright - I admittedly don't have the swankiest guitar/strings, but these last a while and I can keep from changing them for 6 months or so with daily-or-so use, so really quite decent. Also came with an extra high E which is great as that's the string I break the most. As for the sound, they are exactly what I was looking for; not so thin as the majority of 9s and 10s , but not so thick as meant for drop tunings (though these don't sound too bad in drop D/half step down). All in all good purchase.

## Features

- PREMIUM GUITAR STRING - NYXLs are our premium uncoated electric strings, delivering unrivaled strength and tuning stability, plus enhanced mid-range.
- CUT THROUGH THE MIX – The premium nickel-plated steel wrap wire used for NYXLs provides accentuated frequency response in the 1 - 3.5 kHz range, so you get more presence and crunch to cut through the mix.
- STAYS IN TUNE, STRONGER STRING - Stays in tune 131% better than standard strings, while the NY Steel core wire makes them up to 40% stronger—bent two whole steps higher, NYXL strings are still at less than 75% of their breaking point.

- MADE IN THE USA – NYXL electric guitar strings are made in the USA—drawn to our exacting specifications at our New York production facility.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What is thw difference between Balanced and Not Balanced versions?**
A: In producing a Balanced Tension set, D'Addario has attempted to make the string tension of all six strings as equal as possible.  The benefit to the play is that pressing on one string feels essentially the same as pressing on any other string.  This is especially important for string-bending.  Once you learn how much pressure is necessary to bend one string to increase the pitch 1/2 step (for example), the same pressure will increase the pitch 1/2 step on any other string.

**Q: Are these strings coated? The "XL" implies so...**
A: NYXL strings are not coated, and XL is just a product series/family name, which does not imply any specific product specs.  - Steve @ D'Addario

**Q: So what do you Blues players have to say about these strings?**
A: Depends on the type of blues you play.... If you lean more toward "Delta", you probably wont like these much 'cause they give you more bottom end and highs and get rid of that muddy low-mid  much sought-after in that style. Otherwise, many of us who pursue the more recent guitar gods (aka Hendrix, Stevie Ray, Page, etc.) will probably find these strings to be a nice "push" - to some, it will be like adding well-needed air to a deflating balloon.

**Q: Ya but does it djent?**
A: My answer is yes. Great for metal and black metal. Not sure about math metal but I would stick with yes. Nita Strauss does solo work in heavy metal and only uses these strings. Same goes for me , and the many guitarists I play with. Used them in Vegas and received many compliments. To really enhance your sound your pedal board will need some adjustments..

Between my son, who has ten Solar guitars ,and my seven guitars, esp my Steve Vai blue floral jemm 77p and my Nita Strauss signature jiva 10 these are the only strings we use
 Good luck is your decision.  Just keep in mind  we all hear and feel things differently but so many of the musicians I play with all use these strings. Keep on rockin. And keep metal alive
