If you've been playing electric guitar for any length of time, there's a good chance you've already had a set of these on a guitar at some point.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThese are a .011–.049 set, which lands them in the medium gauge range — a step up from the common .010s in terms of feel and tension. That extra heft gives you a bit more volume and a fuller, richer tone, while still staying comfortable for most playing styles. They're categorized by D'Addario as \"Blues\/Jazz Rock,\" which reflects their balanced feel: heavier plain steels than a typical light set, paired with nickel-wound bass strings for a round, full low end.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eConstruction-wise, each wound string is nickel-plated steel wrapped around D'Addario's proprietary NY Steel hex core — drawn in-house at their New York facility to their own specifications. The hexagonal core helps the wrap wire grip securely, which contributes to consistent intonation and reliable tuning stability. The plain strings (.011, .014, .018) are plain steel. Strings come packaged in D'Addario's corrosion-resistant VCI (Vapor Corrosion Inhibitor) bag to keep them fresh until you're ready to string up.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eProduct Features:\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMedium gauge electric guitar strings — .011, .014, .018, .028, .038, .049\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNickel-plated steel wrap wire wound on a hexagonal high-carbon steel core\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNY Steel Hex Core drawn in-house to D'Addario's specifications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCorrosion-resistant VCI packaging keeps strings fresh\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMade in the USA at D'Addario's New York production facility\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompatible with standard 6-string electric guitars\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e D'Addario\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eModel:\u003c\/strong\u003e EXL115 XL Nickel Wound Electric Guitar Strings\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSKU:\u003c\/strong\u003e EXL115\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition:\u003c\/strong\u003e New\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSince 1872, C.A.
