D’Addario NYXL1149 Nickel Wound Electric Guitar Strings, Medium, 11-49
NYXL1149 is designed with larger gauges for players who prefer moderate flexibility and a full, beefy tone. 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.

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…
WARNING: ADDICTIVE I saw the review about these being better but not THAT MUCH better and wanted to hear the difference for myself. Oh man, there’s no telling how much that decision is going to cost me because once I heard the difference I don’t want to go back to the regular D’Addarios. Not that the regulars were or are bad, but these stay fresh much longer for someone like me who doesn’t play a 4-hour show every night. I’m a bedroom player and probably always will be. Each set of these easily lasts me a month…
