EXL110-10P : They just work

3 years ago

I've been using these strings for many years and for me they just work. They are nice and bright and last a long time. I have no issues with tuning stability or feel, generally I'm happy with them and I feel they are good value for money. My sweat is fairly corrosive as evidenced by the state of the my guitar hardware but the strings fare reasonably well, they are a consumable after all. The only issue I have had is that on a guitar with a Kahler trem they used to sometimes break at the balll end twist but now I just slip a small piece of heat shrink tube (previously I used to wrap them with cotton thread) after soldering over the twist and they are then fine. This is a common issue with this type of trem though and the solder trick is often used on 'tremolo' strings anyway. On other trem systems I don't have any issues. I use other gauges of D'Addario strings on baritone and bass guitars with similar, positive results. Definitely worth trying a set of these if you haven't already and if you do use them then it is worth considering buying a multipack like this for the attractive price per set. Also worth mentioning is the environmentally friendly packaging, rock on in a right on way, eh?
