EXL140 is a hybrid gauge set that combines EXL110 for flexibility with heavier 4th, 5th and 6th strings for a more solid low end. XL Nickel Wound electric guitar strings, long recognized as the industry standard, are ideal for a wide range of musical styles.
XL Nickel Wound, D'Addario's most popular guitar strings, are precision wound with nickel plated steel onto a carefully drawn, hexagonally shaped, high carbon steel core. The result—strings with long lasting, distinctive, bright tone and excellent intonation—is ideal for the widest variety of guitars and musical styles.
Round wound strings have the feel and tone that most players are familiar with. This string construction combines the strength of the steel core with the tonal properties of the wrap wire alloy. The precision drawn hexagonal core used in the EXL stings was pioneered by D'Addario. This innovation allows the wrap wire to grip the core for superior dimensional stability, enhanced durability and precise intonation.
