Daddario NYXL1156 5-stars Reviews

Good quality set for downtuned guitars

NYXLs are expensive but there IS a distinct quality to them, in terms of playability/feel and durability.

Setup in C standard on a 25" scale guitar, these are really nice.

The best!

I use it for a while and absolutely happy.

Great strings for modern tone!

Used these strings on my guitars for the last few years and I've always been very happy with the feel and sound

Le jeu de cordes idéal pour le Drop D !

Un jeu de cordes de qualité de fabrication et surtout sonore !

Si vous jouez souvent en Drop D ces cordes sont faites pour vous !

Je recommande !

Best Strings On The Market

NYXL is so far ahead of the other strings on the market in terms of quality, strength and tone. I used this for Drop C.

Good Quality

Definitely good quality strings imo.

Perfect strings for drop C tuning

Brilliant strings overall, great option for drop C tuning.

- Stay in tune very well

- Great sound (use them on EST LTD EC-1000)

- Last long

Only strings you'll ever need

I've used these strings for years and I've never had a bad string. Never snapped with a bend, and if sometimes you just cannot be bothered changing strings, their clarity doesn't die out incredibly fast like some other brands.

Incredibly strong, long lasting and beautiful sounding. I will never use anything but NYXL.

best strings for drop c

best strings for drop c been using them for years and love them cant use anything else it actually sounds brighter and louder than any competitor and they stay good for a long time and if u use ghs fastfret they last a long long time unless they break wich can happen but nevwer happened to me

pros

+ sound

+ reliability

+ played several gigs without breaking a string

cons

- nothing

Simply great strings

I love the NYXL line they feel and sound great and the don't degrade after playing just one gig. I also almost never had a string break.

My def. number 1 string choice

Daddario NYXL line are the best strings I've used so far. I've tried quite few string sets from other manufacturers but these are golden!

Also, Im very happy with set that I currently use (11-56) because, with other manufacturers, I couldn't find set that fits as good as this one either top string was always a bit flappy or tension was way high and bending was nearly impossible.

Endurance of these strings is absolutely amazing. I wipe them before show and they manage to pull 3-4 gigs easily.

I would def. recommend these strings!

Amazing strings!

I use these strings on my PRS Custom 24 in drop D and C mostly, and they're great. I used to use Elixirs and while they're great strings too, these have a clarity to them and higher tension that makes more aggressive styles a charm to play. I do feel like the advertised mid frequency boost is audible.

Overall I do really like the feel and sound of these strings and would recommend them to anyone that's looking for strong, durable and punchy strings that are a charm to play.

Great strings!

I've been using the standard Daddario EXL117 11-56 (drop C tuning on a Les Paul) for a while now and I didn't think the NYXL would make such a difference (2.5 times the price...) but I gave it a shot and the feel and longevity is really better. The sound might not be 2.5 times better but overall it's a good improvement. So I'm sticking to the NYXL now.

Strings

My favourite strings. NYXL just sound great once I played them I put them on all my guitars. Last really long haven't broken a string yet.

Turn it up to 11

Great clarity and bounce off a new set of these beasts.

Ideal for a d-tuning for les paul, it also gives a bit more output and clear defined notes.

useless pro is the package is really soft

only cons are the recycling program from daddario should be also be more available in europe

Perfect for drop c (on 25.5 scale)

Great sound and they last longer

I've used Elixir Nanoweb for a long time, being pretty happy with their prolonged life and the punch they deliver. I decided to give the NY XL a try and I haven't looked back. I like the way they feel, the way they sound, and they do last longer than a set of regular D'Addario strings. I wasn't expecting much given I bought them for my Dean V to use in drop B for slugdy, doomy stuff, but they're surprisingly good and I plan on using them from now on on this guitar. While the low strings are thick and heavy, the higher one are very soft and flexible, giving me a lot of versatility throughout the fretboard. I'm done experimenting, NY XL are keepers for me :)
