D’Addario Guitar Strings – NYXL Electric Guitar Strings – NYXL0942-3P – Unrivaled Strength, Tuning Stability, Enhanced Mid-Range – For 6 String Guitars – 09-42 Super Light, 3-Pack

D’Addario NYXL guitar strings will bend further, sing louder, and stay in tune better than any string you’ve played before. Envisioned, perfected, and manufactured by D’Addario in New York, this newly engineered, break-resistant, high-carbon steel core and plain steel alloy delivers a whole new level of freedom, confidence, and power. NYXL’s provide more strength and up to 131% greater tuning stability by utilizing a completely reinvented wire drawing process coupled with a revolutionary “fusion twist” process for the plain steels. The reformulated nickel plated string windings have greater magnetic properties resulting in higher output and enhanced mid-range frequency response for more presence and crunch.
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 – Fusion Twist technology assures NYXL electric guitar strings stay 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.
EARN REWARD POINTS – NYXL strings come with a code which you can register to earn Players Circle points.
MADE IN THE USA – NYXL electric guitar strings are made in the USA—drawn to our exacting specifications at our New York production facility.

    Best Guitar strings hands down
    TL;DR: These things are some sort of magic steel forged from Dwarven Mithril. The hype is real, D’addario are string wizards.Like a lot of guitarists, I never really cared that much about strings. Sure I’ve had packs that I liked more than others, sure I have a gauge that I prefer, but I was never overly picky and never saw the point in buying expensive strings. In fact, I had a bad experience with some premium Elixers years and years ago that probably wasn’t indicative of how good Elixer strings actually are, but it pretty much put me off of ever buying strings priced over $5.After recently having multiple strings break while restringing with more affordable strings, I decided to finally give NYXL strings a try. I’ve always heard that they are really good but never gave in to the hype.It’s kind of hard to accurately describe these strings. They are phenomenal really. They have a feel that no other string I’ve tried has. There’s like a slightly tighter tension there, but the resistance is still at the level I want for bending. I like 10s because I want easier bends, but still have more push back and resistance than a set of 9s (which feel like spaghetti noodles to me). These things feel almost like the tension of 11s (which I used to use for many years until I realized they were killing my fingers) but are so easy to play. They almost have like a very slightly waxy feel, which honestly feels amazing under your fingers. It probably sounds silly but they honestly do have a premium feel to them. I had zero issues stringing these up, and didn’t need to pre-stretch them near as much as other strings I’ve used. They also just straight up stay in tune. I’ve only had to retune my LP slightly, and my Tele is rock solid. I can imagine these working really well for trems.I normally can’t tell the difference between how strings sound. Since I’ve switched from 11s to 10s I can’t tell a difference from either gauge besides feel. But these strings are obviously louder with a punchier mid range. Personally I’m not a huge fan of how bright and shrill a brand new set of strings can be, but these don’t have that issue. The bright treble is definitely there, but the mid range is so much more pronounced, which is what I like personally. I never thought I’d prefer the sound of one set of strings to another, but these really do make my guitars sound the way I feel they were meant to sound. They really fill out to sound of my Tele as well which was a pleasant surprise.I’ve been playing these for hours on end on both my Tele and LP for almost a week now while playing at home and rehearsal in my band. I can’t see any real signs of wear. Normally around this time I’ve worn in a new set of strings pretty thoroughly but this are still pretty close to looking new. More importantly they still sound just as bright as a fresh pack.The fact that D’addario offers a points reward system as well is pretty awesome. Seems like for every 8 packs I can get a free pack of these, which is more than I can say for any other brand.Long story short, the hype is real. Yes these are at a premium price, but with how long they last, how great they sound, how long they sound great, and how great they feel, it’s really a no brainer. These strings truly are amazing. I won’t string any of my electric guitars with anything else now that I’ve tried these.

    Simply the best!
    These are definitely the best electric guitar strings to this day. The tone is great, loud, and clear with the right amount of brightness and warmth. They hold tune very well after one to two stretches and they last very long. I’ve never had a broken string with these strings and the quality is superb. Try them out you won’t be disappointed.

    Worth the price
    I got these NYXL strings for my short-scale electric guitar. They are really nice strings with fast attack and some nice mids and lots of detail. They also require very little stretching. Once on the guitar and they stay in tune very well. They are also very good for bends.They are well made and consistent between packs. They all come in a single bag (which is supposed to be environmentally friendly). Fortunately, the ball ends are all color coded and a chart on the back specifies the thickness and order of each string. So long as you follow the color codes, installing them should be no problem. If you have a Floyd rose where you have to cut the ball ends off, I’d remove and install one string at a time and then tune them all up at the end (just to save confusion).As well as the strings, you also get a circular NYXL sticker in every pack.ConclusionA great set of strings that might require some work the first time you install them.The only negative is that they require a little work when setting up. You can’t just switch from regular d’addario XL’s. The string tension is different and the strings oscillate a little more. You will have to intonate your guitar and move the saddles a little further back than with stock XL’s so check how much room you have to spare for the saddles. On a strat you can easily end up at the limit requiring you to either raise the action or go up a half size.ConclusionBearing in mind that they cost about three times the price of standard strings and the extra work setting up they aren’t perfect. But they do sound better and last longer. I found that they are about 50% better than the cheaper strings. So I think they are worth it if you’re willing to put in the effort and don’t mind the extra cost.These are my favorite strings for the really nice tone and longevity and stability.

    Best string I’ve had
    Great sounding strings. I think they work like a charm especially for the price. Very very good product. If I ever need strings again I will buy these!

    Pretty solid set of strings
    So this is my first adventure back to D’Addario electric strings in a long time. ( I love their acoustic strings) I use a low tuning – B-F#-B-E-G#-C# and my guitar tech set me up with a custom set of Ernie Ball Colbalt’s which I love. However, to make this custom set 1 had to use a 7 string set, throw 2 away and add a separate 24 plain. He then changed over one of my guitars to this set – NYXL 1164 – as I was wanting a little lighter gauge on my high strings to make soloing a bit easier – I was using .62-.042-.030-.024p-.017-.013This D’Addario set was perfect for that! I use the .64-.049-.038-.018-.014-.011 (tossing the .028) and now I have the lighter strings to make soloing easier and keeping the thick tones of the heavy strings. The string have been very bright and have nice tone. They don’t seem to loose tone fast, but they do stretch out a bit faster than the Cobalt’s. I am definitely satisfied with them and am very happy I have a great option for my guitars I solo on, without giving up the tone of the heavy strings, and without killing my fingers trying to solo on 24/17/13’s

    Buscaba una combinación de cuerdas delgadas en las 3 primeras y algo más grueso en las últimas cuerdas y este juego me brindó algo muy cercano a lo que buscaba, quería cuerdas más gruesas para las últimas cuerdas pero me encantó sonido que resultó de esta combinación, las cuerdas son muy suaves al tocar comparadas con las erniball, y debo decir que de alguna manera las notas que antes desafinaban con las erniball con esta marca no sucede, es difícil de describir pero son muy muy buenas. Y por último estiran delicioso, jamás cambiare de marca, tal vez de calibres solo para comparar.

  8. TomB –

    Great strings. Excellent tone and long life. I use NYXL across all of my guitars.

  9. Amazon Customer –

    these 8-38 NYXL strings are my favorite. They are durable and easy to play and feel good. The only downside is the price.

  10. overdrive1 –

    普段の倍くらいのお値段ですが、とてもチューニングがしっかりしています。そして安定した出音。きらびやかな音。音圧がましました。なにより柔らかいです。チョーキングを多用する方、1音半チョーキング、２音チョーキングをするような方にはもってこいの弦です。

  11. Kralle13 –

    Vieles durchprobiert und bei diesen hängen geblieben. Noch nie eine gerissen. Sound passt. Halten lange. Sind seit 1 Jahr drauf und werden zwar weicher aber nicht unangenehm. Werd dabei bleiben
