As a born New Yorker I have been proud to use the NYXL. Not only because they are made in New York, but because they are just that damn good.

I play like all morning without even taking breakfast and I'm very aggressive with the strings, I play with a lot of attack. I've never broken one and I love the tone. Very good stuff.

They really are damn good! I love mine. They last forever and still sound good

NYXL 10-46 Balanced Tension is all I use.

My second set, used 9/42 on my PRS Custom 24, and this guitar has come alive. My home built guitar i just put on 10/46 . The SRV voiced Texas special pickups went into rocket mode! Both guitars are true since the change, stay in tune forever. And never need to mess around wasting time between sets. The NYXL are the best single addition I have yet to add to any guitar. Keep your guitar happy and make sure you keep in a steady room temp low humidity place. Woods expand and contract, no matter what string set you use the law of temp will mess with your head. Buying Nyxl is good insurance. Any good guitar engineer will tell you the same thing.

Coming from regular XL I could not believe my ears. The difference in tone is huge. I love them.

They feel good and stay in tune, I installed them without any stretching and they were in tune the next day. However they're very neutral sounding. I like how Elixir strings all have their own feel and character if you want a natural bright sound go for the Nanowebs, crisp percussive sound with a slight coated feel go for the Optiwebs, if you like the slick coated feel and a slightly warmer sound go for the Polywebs. I feel for more than twice the price of normal strings you should get noticable tone improvement and playability. If I feel like spending more I buy Elixirs and match the strings to the sound and feel. I prefer the Polywebs most of the time. If I want a good feeling neutral string with a little more zing, I save my money and buy GHS Boomers 10-46. They are great strings for the money, $4.95 you cant go wrong.

I got this and I'm really impressed by them. Marketing aside... They definitely did last the longest of all the strings I had. They stayed nice for almost 4 months... Probably died around 3 months but damn they sounded good and felt phenomenal. I'll be sticking with them for sure

I have a problem. I put these strings on on my explorer for the first time last week and haven’t had to tune the guitar since the initial setup.... I’ve never had this before... Anyone else?

NYXL's on my Epiphone Les Paul Standard. .009-.046

I have to confirm.... I put NYXL strings on 2 of my guitars a week ago. They're still in tune today.

My sensitive skin and hands never liked the feel of coated strings and NYXL are the most durrable and best sounding strings I have tried for what I use them for. I can confirm they stay in tune on lots of guitars for a long while once they are streached enough (not enough to brake them)/"set" on a guitar more. My hollow body guitars I use flatwound chromes on though. D'addario has been my go to brand for all my strings for years now. If you clean a fretboard well every string change and then wash hands lots of playing sessions strings can last longer. I love that some of these strings I got have came with a sticker too.

My guitar tech and bandmate sets up my stuff, and I've been a believer of NYXL ever since. Super good strings. I love them.

Playing for almost 30 years, best fucking strings ever made: never broken one, best sounding, higher output FOR SURE; just went back to slinkies to try and miss the NYXL. Put stickers back in the pack though!!!

Thanks for explaining the difference. I wondered if their carbon content was increased. I'll have to try these out.

NYXL lasted me longest on my guitar without breaking, but it did break today.

Maybe they will start making them for extended range guitars. a 90, 100 and so on would be nice.

Are they similar to elixirs? corrosion protection

Soon I will put in my guitar

is there a new set up required for a floating tremolo using same gauge as the XL's due to the tension difference?

They are really nice strings, but for $12.99 a pack I might just get a 3 pack of regular exls and change them more often.

Sounds like with all this added material the OD would be greater, does this mean that one should really cut their nut in order for them tomfitmproperly.

My friend told me abt this string thts y I'm hea

I have used the NYXL 9-42 strings for 3 years but I recently had the high E string come unwound at the ball end on 2 different sets. Not happy about that at all. 🤬

its simple.you rep talk, put 0.00004 grams of carbon more in a set of strings and sell them double the price. it works!

The amount of interruption in this video is unbearable.....

They are to tinny sounding

NYXLs are my favorite strings, but you need to stretch them after you install them or you will be playing flat. D'Addario should stop lying about this.

bla bla bla

Turned black in 3 days didn’t stay in tune at all not worth the money.

The worst strings ever
