EXL110-3D : My favourite. At last.

12 years ago

The D'addarios have become my favourite set of strings.

Not only this gauge, but D'addario strings in general.

I finally ended up where I started at. ALternatives like Ernie Balls Regular Slinky did not last as long and their brilliant tone was gone after only four weeks of moderately intense playing. Elixir with nanoweb coating were way too slippery and costly (however with great endurance).

Having also tried the .009, the .010's and thicker gauges are really made for Blues, Rock and heavier stuff.

The fresh and bright tone lasts long, the packaging is solid and the coloured ball-ends simplify string changes.

I'm glad to say I've found my strings.
