Description
D’Addario XS Nickel Electric Guitar Strings Regular Light 10-46 are a premium coated set for electric players who want great tone that lasts, with a smooth, fast feel under the fingers. The 10-46 gauge is a popular choice for everyday use, offering an easy bend on the top strings with a firm, defined low end that suits rock, blues, pop and worship styles. Whether you are rehearsing at home, recording in the studio or playing live, these strings deliver consistent intonation, reliable tuning and a bright, modern voice that stays lively for far longer than a typical uncoated set.
Built with nickel plated steel windings over a high strength NY Steel hex core, this set combines crisp attack with musical warmth and a balanced response across all six strings. An ultra thin XS coating on the wound strings helps resist sweat and corrosion, while the plain steels receive a protective treatment that preserves their clean feel and clarity. Fusion Twist technology at the ball ends further improves tuning stability and break resistance. Compared with basic student level strings, the XS Nickel set feels sleeker, reduces squeak and holds its fresh tone for extended playing sessions.
Perfect for UK tuition and school ensembles, these strings settle quickly, stay in tune and reduce the need for frequent changes, which keeps lessons focused and costs down. The Regular Light 10-46 gauge offers a comfortable platform for developing technique, supporting clear chord work, smooth vibrato and confident bends without excessive tension. Their durable coated construction makes them a sensible value choice for daily practice, while their articulate, modern sound suits a wide range of repertoire used by teachers and exam boards. Ideal as a reliable upgrade for students and a dependable workhorse for gigging musicians alike.
