Nickel-plated steel 9.5-44 set

D'Addario EXL120+ electric guitar strings use a high carbon steel core with nickel-plated steel wrap wire. The Super Light Plus gauge runs from 9.5 to 44. This construction delivers a bright, versatile tone suited to a broad spectrum of musical genres and playing styles.

For players wanting a slightly heavier feel

Guitarists who find standard super light sets too loose but regular light sets too stiff will appreciate the intermediate tension. Musicians who prefer pure nickel wrap wire or coated strings for a warmer or longer-lasting tone should consider alternative string types.

9.5-44 gauge specification

The 9.5-44 gauge is the single figure that determines whether this set matches the player's preferred tension and tone. If a lighter or heavier overall feel is required, a different gauge set will be necessary.
