09-42 Super Light, XS Nickel Coated Electric Guitar Strings

XS Nickel coated electric guitar strings provide the longest life of any DAddario electric guitar string. Coated with our groundbreaking XS coating, these premium electric strings achieve maximum life and a smooth, fast feel without dampening their outstanding tone. Constructed with a NY Steel core, reformulated nickel-plated steel wrap wire, and Fusion Twist technology, XS Nickel strings boast superior strength and tuning stability, plus richer harmonics, greater clarity, and remarkable definition with every sweep, slide, and bend. This 9-42 Super Light gauge set is easy to bend and very flexible.

XS is breathing new life into coated strings. With its ultra-thin film coating on every wound string and unique polymer treatment on the plain steels, XS offers our highest level of protection for maximum life with an uncommonly smooth feel. XS also features NY Steel high carbon core and plain string wire, along with our exclusive Fusion Twist, for incomparable break strength and tuning stability. XS is the most innovative coated string ever created.
