D’Addario NYXL1052 10–52 – Light Top / Heavy Bottom
The D’Addario NYXL1052 set is a popular hybrid gauge for players who want easy bends up top with a bigger, tighter low end. You get the feel of a regular light set on the plain strings, paired with heavier wound strings for powerful rhythm tone, heavier chording, and a firmer response—great for players who dig in, play hard, or want extra stability.
NYXL strings are engineered to bend farther, sing louder, and stay in tune better, thanks to a high-carbon steel core and D’Addario’s advanced manufacturing process. With enhanced magnetic properties in the windings, they’re also known for higher output and a more forward midrange—perfect for cutting through with more presence and crunch.
