D'Addario NYXL 10 to 74 Light Top and Heavy Bottom 8-String Electric Guitar Strings

The D'Addario NYXL 10 to 74 8-String Electric Guitar Strings will bend farther, sing louder, and stay in tune better than any string you’ve played before. As the premium uncoated electric string, NYXLs offer higher break strength, enhanced tuning stability, and accentuated mid-range frequency response, providing more presence and crunch to cut through the mix. Made with a NY Steel core, premium nickel-plated steel wrap wire, and Fusion Twist technology, NYXL electric guitar strings are tough enough and versatile enough to handle anything. This 10 to 74 Light Top and Heavy Bottom 8-String set combines the high strings from a regular set with heavier low strings, delivering powerful lows and smooth bending. NYXLs are the premium uncoated electric strings, delivering unrivaled strength and tuning stability, plus enhanced mid-range. The premium nickel-plated steel wrap wire used for NYXLs provides accentuated frequency response in the 1 to 3.5 kHz range, so you get more presence and crunch to cut through the mix. Fusion Twist technology assures NYXL electric guitar strings stay in tune 131-percent better than standard strings, while the NY Steel core wire makes them up to 40-percent stronger bent two whole steps higher, NYXL strings are still at less than 75-percent of their breaking point. NYXL strings come with a code which you can register to earn Players Circle points. NYXL electric guitar strings are made in the USA drawn to the exacting specifications at the New York production facility. The strings are ideal for all genres.
