EXL120 : My personal favorite strings

7 years ago

I bought these strings as id bought a new guitar ( one of the natural ash body harley benton teles) to be precise, as i find brand, material and gauge of string is a personal choice and can make or break a guitar expierience.

I used to only play Ernie Ball strings and a few years ago somewhere was doing a really good offer on D'addarios. i bought some although i cant remeber which ones in 11 gauge and thought they had a much warmer yet brighter tone than my previous strings and i prefered that. Over time i had lowered the gauge of the strings as my playing style has changed but i get the same great feel and tone and also lifespan from even the thinner strings.

If you are looking for new strings and are not a fan of the coated strings such as elixrs then give these a try even if you are a life long loyal customer to Ernie Ball.

If you are unsure on string gauge to buy and are new to guitar i would persoally start on 10s and see if you prefer lighter or heaver strings and adjust accordingly to feel and preference..

When payday comes i will have to buy more packs of these as im always running out and they are cheaper here than my local music shop.
