I've always liked 9-42 strings as my favorite gauge, but these 9-46 'hybrid' strings are my new favorite

This specific gauge can be difficult to find.

i prefer a slightly heavier gauge, but these are ok for now...

But for me, I enjoy standard tunings lower than E. I often play in C standard thru D standard tunings, and the thicker gauge of the LOW strings allows stronger tension at the lower pitch which reduces buzz and the "floppiness" associated with down-tuned strings - even with the lower tunings I use

Perfect gauge for my aggressive picking style on the low strings (I play mostly rock and metal).

Just about the perfect sting gauge set for this noob

I mostly use the medium gauge on my electrics but I have also tried the light gauge and also love them

I've been playing with D'addarios for years, and I've just discovered my new favorite gauge

Yes, I like the feel of these and will definitely grab these before getting the normal 11's if I'm getting a single pack because I like the individual gauges that come with this set

Great heavy-gauge strings

If you have a good setup, the heavier gauge is no harder to play in my opinion

Looked to up the gauge on my Ibanez RGD 2127FX, but for some reason my guitar did not like the lowest 59 gauge string

For me, this is simply the best string gauge out there, and D'Addarios always feel so much smoother than the competition.

-Heavy Gauge-Very clear sound, it livened up my Les Paul, planning on buying more for my Telecaster

A nice light gauge string though is an entirely other matter

Nice sound and very heavy gauge, love em!

Very well rounded string and gauge

I just spent about 4 months dorking around with strings, trying to find the right gauge.

This certain gauge (11-49) might be tough to bend for beginners

My new favorite 10 gauge strings

Good quality strings and the 10.5 gauge is perfect for down tuning a half step

I like to use fingers sometimes and the gauge of the 1-3 strings allow for smooth picking, due to the coating I guess

Let's me really bang on the bottoms without having to tune down to optimize playability, which means no buzz with heavy attack, but also gives me a light enough gauge on top to be able to get a little flashy when I want to show off

Durable, perfect gauges within the set, low relative cost and SOUNDS GREAT!!!

I never imagined downtuned strings and when I first did it, I was just using improper gauge and hated the way my guitar played.

Great intermediate string gauge set.

I like the heavier gauge for my guitars.

Perfect gauge for Les Paul if you want to do any moderate drop-tuning.

Love the gauges from top to bottom

These EXL-140s are my new favorite gauge ..

My only complaint is that the .074 low string is just not the right gauge for anything other than F# standard tuning

Love these gauge of strings good buy for this three pack compared to buying in local music shop

I generally prefer 10-52 gauge for my Gibson scale length guitars, but if standard 10s are your thing, you can't really go wrong with these strings.

These are some very nice light gauge strings that perform well and hold up to practice sessions that usually last anywhere from one to three hours a night

I like a light string gauge as I have some hand and finger problems from a lifetime of hard work.

Check out the 10s as well if you like a thicker gauge.

I love this particular gauge

When I was in a hardcore metal band that was tuned to Drop A I would use elixir baritones (Very awesome strings, 70 gauge) and had to file the nut down to fit them in, but when I went back to standard/drop

The 11-49 gauge is quite chunky, but I knew what I was getting into, because I played Power Slinkys which were 11-48

Wound G

The wound G can rarely unravel at the dent spot

These strings with the WOUND G work really well on my short scale guitars

and I implore you, if you have been plagued by sour g strings, you must try these

Ever have a bad G that sounds dead, even when you change the strings

I really like the wound third especially on Les Pauls, really helps with the infamous G string de-tune issue a lot of LPs have.

Great strings for that infamous G string falling out of tune

Good as always

String is great for metal and low tuning as well as for bluesy riffs

Not too bright, not too dull, lasts as long as they should not being coated.

My ESP came with a set of Cleartone 9/42's on it, but the high E was busted

I like a lighter gauge string for bending, but the E and A on the strings I was using were too thin sounding.

One high E string broke while putting it and two strings broke as soon as you do a bend

Low E-string broke before I even put any tension on it with the tuning key...first and last time I buy anything from D’Addario.

Especially the low E's thanks to my prints

The high E string broke in less than a
