Description
Dropping into baritone range or dive-bombing your standard guitar into drop tunings shouldn’t cost you tone. The EXL158 set brings D’Addario’s nickel wound construction to a heavier 13-62 gauge spread, giving shorter-scale electric baritones the tension and definition they need to stay in tune and sound punchy string to string.
These aren’t just baritone-only strings, either. Swap a set onto a standard-scale electric and you’ve got an easy path to deep down-tuning without the low strings turning to mush. The plain steel top end (.013, .017) keeps chord work snappy, while the wound low end (.026, .036, .046, .062) delivers the growl and clarity that heavier tunings demand.
Fresh strings change everything – the moment a dead, dull set gets replaced with a new EXL158 pack, you’ll notice the difference in sustain, articulation, and how the guitar actually responds under your hands. D’Addario seals each set in corrosion-resistant, environmentally friendly packaging so they’re ready to perform right out of the box, and every set is made in the U.S.A. for consistent quality run after run.
