Good on Strat’
Have been using these on an Ash body Strat for almost ever since buying it. It came with D’Addarios on it, (coloured ball ends), when they wore out I used the Fender 250’s that came as spares in the case, but these didn’t last as long. Having used Elixir’s on several of my guitars for years, I went for those, but they were so dull they were off in 2 or 3 days. Ordered these coated D’Addario’s, (as I prefer coated strings for my skin & longevity of string life), & I was back to how it sounded from the Fender dealer, very easy to play, very expressive articulation & rock steady tuning stability with the trem’ setting. Best strings for a bright sounding Ash Strat, probably for most Strat’s. Class strings!!

Absolutely awesome!!
These strings are great. They are just what I need for lots of tapping and playing heavier bass notes. Also if you use a Floyd rose or tremolo these are the best in my opinion. They have coating that keeps the bright tone, and won't go out of tune as much when you use your tremolo arm or Floyd rose.

Great strings
Very nice strings, colour coded for ease of installation and play well. Also a good brand of string. I always buy Di adagio.

Better than I expected
I usually use another brand of coated strings, which work very well for me. Saw these and took a punt. They feel great, theyre stable and so far are lasting as long as my usual brand. I will be buying more of these for sure.

弾きやすいし音質が好み
買ったばかりで耐久性についてはまだわかりませんが、これまで使ってたElixir の nanoweb よりも柔らかめで弾きやすく、音質はよりブライトで私好みです。値段的にも Elixir に比べて安いし、1弦のみの単品販売もあるので耐久性次第ではずっと使用していこうかと思っています。 難点としては私の近所では専門の楽器店に行かないと売っていなく、値段もネット通販よりも高いので切れた時に気軽に購入できないという所ですかね。それでも注文して翌日には届いたので1日我慢する程度ですが。

It's Durable!
I purchased the XTE0942 almost 3months ago and up to now its still going strong. I have to commend on the durability of the strings (considering the usage is more than twice on a weekly basis). No visible rust so far and the pitch of the string has a good mellow tune to it. Ideal for personal sounds or at a crowd. I would definitely but this product again. Highly recommended.

Great strings
Put them on my Strat. Great sound and feel, and they stay in tune well. I’ll buy them again.

They don't feel or sound like coated strings at all
If I had the money I'd always buy these. Unlike other coated strings these feel totally natural and last a long time. Great for people like me with sweaty hands. If I can't get my hands on these then I go for the NYXL ones. These are top tier and I will never switch back to Ernie Ball. Edit: I'm now on my third pack and I'm never going back. I wish there were an option for subscribe and save like there are for the 9-42 NYXL strings but oh well. I get these about once every 3 to 4 months just for the one guitar I use these on. I like using these on my Jazzmaster. Despite it's scale length being the same as all other Fender guitars like the Strat the string still has to travel further from the bridge to peg and the high E is prone to breakage.

Klarer Sound und perfekte Haltbarkeit – besser geht’s nicht!
Diese Saiten haben mich echt umgehauen. Der Klang ist absolut knackig und klar – genau das, was ich bei meinen Riffs will. Egal ob ich voll in die Saiten haue oder sanft spiele, der Sound bleibt sauber und definiert. Außerdem sind sie super stimmstabil, ich muss also nicht nach jedem Song neu stimmen. Richtig angenehm! Was die Haltbarkeit angeht, bin ich auch total zufrieden. Selbst nach mehreren Proben und Jam-Sessions halten sie die Spannung und klingen wie am ersten Tag. Ein echter Geheimtipp für alle, die Saiten suchen, die klanglich und qualitativ voll abliefern. Mein Gitarren-Alltag ist jetzt definitiv ein Level höher!
