D'Addario EXL116 XL Nickel Wound Electric Guitar Strings
Since 1974, D'Addario XL Nickel strings have set the benchmark for electric guitar performance—revered by players worldwide for their consistency, durability, and unmistakable clarity. The EXL116 set features a Medium Top/Heavy Bottom gauge of 11–52, offering a brilliant hybrid design that gives your high strings moderate flexibility for expressive bends and lead work, while delivering a booming, tight low-end that adds punch and authority to rhythm playing.
Crafted with a high carbon steel core and precision nickel-plated steel wrap wire, these strings produce a bright, versatile tone that adapts effortlessly across genres—from blues and rock to metal and beyond. The heavier bottom strings are especially ideal for drop tunings and heavy riffing, ensuring your sound remains defined and powerful even at lower registers.
