D'Addario NW048 XL Nickel Wound Single String — .048 Gauge
Sometimes you just need one string. The D'Addario NW048 is a single .048 gauge nickel-plated steel round wound string from the XL series — D'Addario's most widely used electric guitar string line. Whether you snapped a string mid-session or want to put together a custom gauge set, this single has you covered without buying a full pack.
The XL Nickel Wound construction uses nickel-plated steel wrapped around a hexagonally shaped high-carbon steel core. That combination gives the string a bright, well-defined tone and solid intonation across the neck. The .048 gauge sits in wound string territory, making it a common choice for lower-register strings on standard or drop-tuned setups.
