KEY BENEFITS OF D’ADDARIO XS
- A tremendous leap forward in coating technology allows the string windings to be completely protected from contaminants for incredibly long-lasting tone and maximum life.
- With an ultra-thin film coating on every wound string and D'Addario's proprietary polymer treatment on the plain steels, XS has a smooth, fast feel, without fraying or peeling over time, providing an inspiring experience with every sweep, slide and bend on every string.
- NYXL reformulated nickel-plated steel wrap wire provides increased output, bite and sustain, without the acoustic dampening common in coated strings. Stick out in the mix and bring new life to your guitar with richer harmonics, greater clarity, and remarkable definition in every strum.
