Reviews around quality (4.45 of 5)

  • Overall, my husband regards these as very good quality strings, even if the price point might be higher than some others
  • These not only are at a great price, they are great quality for the price they are at
  • Well all guitarist know that D'Addario strings are the finest quality whether you are playing electric or acoustic music.
  • The A to the high E are fine but the low E ruins everything.
  • They are too expensive to be this poor quality.

Reviews around product (4.30 of 5)

  • Overall they are a truly great product and I highly recommend them.
  • Four of the six strings are obvious to me just by looking at them, but the D and the G are very hard for me to tell apart and the color coding doesn't help me a bit
  • I've never in my life broken a string from just playing my guitar ever, and these strings did just that, I was practicing a Hollywood Undead song and had the D string break, yeah waste of money.
  • I'm a musician and one that does NOT mind paying the extra money for a good quality product

Reviews around price (3.86 of 5)

  • A fair price for these in my opinion is $12-15, since they are new
  • Probably my favorite string (at least at the moment)... really nice heavy gauge strings, I got the 1150BT balanced tensions ones, so the 50 low E is especially nice since it's a little heavier than a normal 48, but not quite as chunky as a 52
  • I have been looking for strings that compare to Thomastik Infield Power Brights for a better price, but these fall short.
  • These not only are at a great price, they are great quality for the price they are at
  • Excellent strings, excellent price, fast shipping - overall

Reviews around strings (3.78 of 5)

  • Strings are nice and bright, like advertised, but the high E was tarnished in a few spots
  • The Strings were damaged a little bit, i'm not sure if it will affect the sound of the strings, but from what i read, it might
  • Four of the six strings are obvious to me just by looking at them, but the D and the G are very hard for me to tell apart and the color coding doesn't help me a bit
  • The G string broke prematurely and has been replaced with a DR Pure Blues of the same gauge
  • Excellent customer service, and as for the strings themselves: well I bought them because they are my favorite after years of trial, and its certainly no different for a pack of 8 string

Reviews around use (3.72 of 5)

  • I've been playing guitar for about 40 years and I find these to be the best strings I've ever used
  • I can now say that these new NYXL strings are the best string I have used to date
  • I have been trying every type and brand names....and for now, I have found the perfect strings.....warm sound and they stary in tune even after a hard tremolo use....
  • : High E snapped at post during stringing, G & B sticky to slide due to the nature of the metal alloy (couldn't even test the high E), not as easy to bend as advertised - the gauges I run feel like a heavier gaugeToo many negatives to warrant the price
  • Probably my favorite string (at least at the moment)... really nice heavy gauge strings, I got the 1150BT balanced tensions ones, so the 50 low E is especially nice since it's a little heavier than a normal 48, but not quite as chunky as a 52

  • I just got these for my telecaster (52 reissue), they sound good so far, have a nice feel, not overly bright, a bit smooth

  • Don't get me wrong, there are many decent strings; but only a few that are truly "better" (i.e. sound great, last a longer, tune faster and that don't lose tune when bending or whammy use)
  • They play so smoothly and hold their tune shockingly well, even right after stringing
  • otherwise they are great strings and hold there tune very well
  • The selling point here is that they really stay in tune well during a show

Reviews around guitar (3.36 of 5)

  • I assume it's the strings as the guitar has never had a problem prior to
  • Best guitar strings I've ever had on an electric of this type.
  • These are without a doubt the best guitar strings you can buy.
  • Awesome guitar strings, surpassed my expectations by far and would totally recommend them
  • I chose a darker-sounding guitar than a single-coil Fender, hoping the supposed brightness of the NYXLs would be more noticeable

Reviews around set (3.05 of 5)

  • I have been using these strings for years, so the second string breaking was clearly a very random fluke, and along with replacing my set they even sent me an extra second string for good measure
  • In comparison, this set of D'Addario NYXL strings are an overall improvement over the EBs
  • I have used their regular daddario nickel strings & achieved bends from E to G# or even A from the same 2nd string 17th fret, playing for months without changing strings & they never broke.maybe i just received a bad set, but at 8 or 10$ , man that hurts
  • Strings are nice and bright, like advertised, but the high E was tarnished in a few spots
  • I put on the new set on Mon evening, and the A string just broke on Sat afternoon.

  • , it really helped with the buzzing and sustain but it had a more metallic sound, not as rich and warm as the NYXL's , and a couple of days later they felt rusty and the High E string broke during a very light bend
