Daddario EXL110 Reviews

Great strings

High quality strings for low price

Great performance for the price!

Everyone knows these strings. Their affordable, reliable and perform greatly for a long time.

Obviously, there are better strings in the market, whatever the parameter and even Daddario makes strings that are more perfected in every way. But if you dont know where to start, this are the standard strings of choice.

You broke a string? Get some Daddario EXL110

Bought a guitar and strings sound dull? Buy a new pack of Daddarios EXL110

Bought a new guitar and the strings play and feel great? They're much likely Daddarios EXL110

It's that simple, they're the standard.

But every rose has its thorn, and with this pack of strings the finish is the flaw.

I'm not talking about the packaging, nor the way they're made. It's just that they break in if you put them in a stressfull environment. (Like all of us, i think) So they tend to "finish" early. If they're well treated, they'll last decades.

You see, the G string is always breaking because it stands in the middle of the neck, right next to the truss rod, where the guitar feels more pressure (per inch).

But now you ask "The D string is also in the middle, why doesnt it break as well?"

Well, the D string is wounded, thereby reinforcing its resistance to break.

These strings are not well suited for other-than-standard tunings. Drop D is fine and all, but Drop Cs or a "capo" kind of tuning will leave the strings in a not so desirable environment. Other than that they feel great, the sound coming out is great as well and they're dirt cheap.

Great Strings!

I use the strings for mostly rock and metal and they provide a very nice clear tone on both clean and distortion. They tune well, after the initial string stretching they stay in tune more than other strings I've tried.

Overall, I highly recommend these strings.

Ultra Reliable

I have used these strings for 27 years. I think I tried Elixirs once and went directly back to XLs. 110s rarely break and I bend a lot. Slow to oxidize and very toney strings at a great price to where I feel pretty smart when I buy them in bulk!

Simply, a golden classic

Like others said already, these strings are great. If you're looking for a good rock sound these are the way to go. Will last you a good while if you take care of them (wipe after using). Would and will buy again.

5/5 stars

A classic

This is a typical .10 - .46 string gauge. It sounds great and feels great on Gibson's and other short scale neck guitars. Will even support some drop tunings, like 1/2 or whole tone down

great strings

these strings are great with a lasting quality. thanks!

does what it says on the tin

they are strings - they work. What else can I say?! Strings are all down to personal preference - and for me I must confess I don't normally like Daddario's. However after byuing yet another new guitar fitted out with them, rather than just ripping them off the guitar immediately I used them, and was pleasantly surprised. I always felt they were uncomfortable for my fingers (I normally perfer Cleartones), but now don't have a problem with them. Keep their zing for long enough, no breakages, all in all would use them again!

Perfect Strings

After 10 years of playing, trying every brand and gimmick of strings, these are the ones I always come back to. Crisp, great intonation, long lasting and great feeling. Everything you want from a set of strings. For all styles of music I wouldnt use any other brand.

Good strings

However even on E standard, I thought the lower strings were too floppy. I got the 10-52 too and I prefer those but these still have a good tone.

My go to strings

What can I say about these strings that hasn't all ready been said.

These are my go to strings now... I used to play Ernie ball all the time, but made the switch 5 years ago and haven't looked back.

These are great everyday strings, they are long lasting, produce good tones on a array of different styles of guitars.

Great color coded ball ends makes it easy to know what string goes where.

Great strings for price

They will do the job needed at a great price

The standard!

These strings are my standard set for years.

I tried different other brands with the same, or slightly different gauges, but I've always ended up with these.

If new, they are very bright sounding and feel very smooth and comfortable.

They last as long as I expect it from a set of strings and keep this nice "new sound" for quite a while.

All my guitars in standard tuning are equipped with these.

I had no issues with breaking strings or bad quality.

I recommend keeping them fresh and clean using GHS fast fret or any other similar product. This will keep them sounding good even longer!

Perfect Electric Strings For Me

Having tried heavier and lighter gauges in other brands as well as Daddario, these are the perfect strings for me. They almost never break and hold their tuning stability and tone for an exceptionally long time. I would definitely recommend these strings!

rock & roll

yepp these strings are for rock & roll buy them if youre in for r&r

Clear and Strong!

A perfect set of strings which maintain their clarity at lower tunings (C Standard). They're incredibly strong, and kept going out of tune the first few days I had them, but they have since loosened a little without compromising the tone.

GREAT!!!

this string does it job very fine..I mainly using ESP string set..but its always limited on stock..then i've been trying different brand, nothing can beat this string..now whenever my ESP string out of stock, this'll always become my main string..sound it produce bright, clear, great tone..

Daddario strings

I usually a different brand of strings - don't really like to change something if it isn't broken. Someone recommend daddario strings and to be honest I didn't notice any difference between these and my old strings except they lasted longer before I needed to change them

excellent

these are a great set of strings and for the money ya can't beat it either. the tone of the strings is warm and bassy which i like in my electric strings. i change tunings regularly which can be sore on strings but i find you still get a great life out of these strings too.

Nice!

I used these because are the strings that are monted by stock on Gretsch Jim Dandy. So I bought these to replace the worn strings on my acoustic, and worked perfectly, delivers a sweet tone, nice for fingerpicking and even better for strumming. Not so bright and powerful as martin strings, but good on my parlor guitar.
