All user reviews for the D'Addario XL Nickel Wound Electric 6-String

As usual 'with the strings, opinions vary widely among people ... In any case I personally use them for over a year, having test APRS Dean Markley (the basic chords, say anything spcial), GHS (I got too soft, wear out too fast with my game and my fingers), Gibson and Fender (I call him too well but I had not be super confident), and these are the best for me.

They are quite hard and give a feeling of CONTRL, accuracy and power trs cool. The bright sound of new strings disappears rather quickly (one or two hours of play) but that's normal: their "real" is a string rodes. Once that is done, the sound DGRAD trs slowly, so much so that I tend to wait trs long before replacing them.

In addition, more than a year I have only one cass (APRS by connecting several back and forth between standard tuning and open ground, that the strings apprcient rarely. And she had more than a month).

Finally, D'Addario are two teams of "gadgets" so nice that I do not understand why other brands are not doing much: that colors the ends vitent btement of error strings in the amount, and the bag that being protected from corrosion before you mount them.

Short strings idalie for me (on pitch Fender: Gibson for a tune they are a bit soft, I prfre the 11-49), but it got much a question of: to sound "new" or that lasts for flexible cords trs, see the competition.

I can not say exactly how long I use this brand, but I will say about 7-8 years, I like these strings is the Resistors time it offers the price low enough (compared to other brands of same quality cotent.j they 've tried many other brands Ernie Ball, Dean Markley, Elixir, and frankly I never silent, too, the comfortable with the D'Addario they are flexible, break rarely, say, 7-8 years of use I have one and cass unfortunate string concert is more than satisfactory, c is on after the sound level if you are ultra picky about the sound is not top notch but hey I have a U.S. Start up 10-46 in the beautiful and does not seem to plaindre.j it 'likes pulling the 11-52 for my game mtal Dropper In a parcque Do not tro hard nor too soft for that attack not just the strings like a nandertaliens. qualitprix the report is, for me, because unbeatable by ordering on some websites in batches of several games, the unit price e nd evient almost donnbr /> With the exprience, you do again this choice? ...
I think the question does not arise, I do not see myself playing on another brand, if a part j'tait a rock star and that I could be making ropes or copper plates! lol
I put them 9 / 10 because to me they are perfect but we must be raliste in life nothing is

I use them for the past few months.

I always used Dean Markley Blue Steel. Why? Probably because when I started the guitar, we had to tell me something like "this is the best," and had not necessarily been sought further. Since then, I tried a little while without success (Ernie Ball -> a shit, too fast and oxidized break just by looking, Skull -> can, yucky, "raspy" and too expensive for its rotten Elixir -> too expensive for a longer life far from being checked ...). But not D'Addario. Probably the syndrome "is the cheapest, so it must be the shit."

And then came my last scraper mounted on D'Addario. And then the revelation: they are strong, slightly oxidized (slower than the blue steel anyway), have a good sound (it, OK, it's completely subjective), and most importantly, have lots of little things Cool: the plastic bag closed to prevent them from oxidized before being mounted, the balls of color (that's all stupid, but super ergonomic), sold in packs of three for the price of 2 games .. . Above all, they cost, according to the stores, nearly half of the other games of rope.

In short, it adopted, with the regret of not having tried it before and have scorched the tune for nothing in other products, the main benefits seem to be only marketing ...

They are mounted on a Lag Arkane Absolute approximation that does not forgive! These strings are really excellent! With minimal maintenance (cloth + a shot of fast-fast freight), they last a very long time (two months playing every day) and keep their noise characteristics (brightness, uniform). In addition, touch is very nice, very soft, flexible (on a ebony fingerboard, it is a treat!). I tried a bunch of brands of strings before (9-46, 10-46 or 9-42) is by far the best, at least the ones I prefer. The Dean Markley Blue Steel is not worth what they are supposed to represent and do not last long, Ernie Ball Slinky are nice but not the same outfit or the same price, CDs are excellent but aging at great speed , about the Elixir, pay 12 euros a game hurts too much ass to be polite ... So I spend all my guitars with D'Addario! And it is cheaper!
