D’Addario XS Coated Electric Guitar Strings Super Light 9-42
The D’Addario XS Coated Electric Guitar Strings Super Light 9-42 are built for players who want long string life, smooth feel and clear electric guitar tone. Featuring D’Addario’s advanced XS coating, these strings are designed to last longer while keeping the bright, articulate response players expect from nickel-plated electric strings.
This Super Light 9-42 gauge set is easy to bend, flexible under the fingers and well suited to lead playing, expressive vibrato, fast runs and everyday electric guitar use.
Long-Life XS Coating
D’Addario’s XS coating helps protect the strings from corrosion and wear, giving them extended life without heavily dampening the tone. The result is a smooth, fast feel with excellent clarity and definition.
NY Steel Core and Fusion Twist Technology
Built with a strong NY Steel core and Fusion Twist technology, XS Nickel strings offer improved strength and tuning stability. This makes them a great choice for players who bend often, use vibrato or need strings that stay reliable through regular playing.
Bright Nickel Tone
The reformulated nickel-plated steel wrap wire delivers rich harmonics, clear attack and strong note definition. Whether you are playing clean chords, blues bends, rock riffs or high-gain lead lines, these strings stay articulate and responsive.
