## Description

Available for 6 string electric guitar ranging from super light to light top/heavy bottom gauges.

Review: One star down because of price. 2nd star down because I think feel of NYXL is better and because these stings dont come in size 8th
Review: These strings deliver on what is promised. D'addario claim they have improved tuning stability. This is true. Even after a fresh change they settle in faster and stay in tune better than any other strings I've tried. They are coated but nothing like Elixir, which I can't stand. The coating on the XTs is applied sparingly and I'm not even sure I can feel it. They do have a warmer sound which was perfect for me since my guitar tends to be piercingly bright with the wrong pairing. So they may not work for that reason but for me they're my new staple strings, better than NYXL.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Am i able to get a replacement for my g string for 09/46, i just got my order yesterday, also my g string snapped.**
A: Argh! I hate when a new string breaks! 

You probably can order a single string, but it's usually more "cost effective" to order another complete set of strings.

You might want to check w/ a local music store; they may offer you a better price on single strings.

**Q: I use nyxl’s & love them. how do these feel compared to nyxls? are they stiffer from the coating?**
A: No, they feel like normal strings. And they lasted a lot longer.

**Q: are they supposed to be slippery? I am trying to learn guitar but trying a D chord results in my 3rd finger sliding**
A: According to D'Addario ... "XT strings feature an extended lifespan treatment on every string in the set, preserving the natural tone and feel of uncoated strings".
Personally, I don't find them noticeably 'slippery'. I put mine on around December 10th, 2019 and they still feel clean & smooth. These are the first coated string I have tried. I understand other brands may be more 'slippery' than these. I can't exactly see what you are trying to do, so I can't comment on that.

**Q: Do either the xte1149 or the xse1149 have a wound g string (.018)?**
A: no

Estás cuerdas se han convertido en mis favoritas. Antes compraba Ernie ball pero desde que probé las DAddario me encantaron, no solo se sienten de mejor calidad , considero que el sonido es mejor además de que son muy cómodas para tocar, no sé oxidan y tampoco lastiman, son suaves para hacer bendings y no se truenan como las de otras marcas que he probado. Sin duda son de las mejores y en este paquete de tres piezas salen a un excelente precio.
