Description
If you’re the type who changes strings before every gig (or every other practice), stop buying one set at a time. This EXL115-3D pack gives you three sets of D’Addario’s Blues/Jazz gauge XL Nickel Wounds, so you’re never caught with a dead set on stage.
Gauge-wise, these sit in that sweet spot between standard 10s and heavier jazz sets: .011, .014, .018 plain steel on top, .028, .038, .049 nickel wound on the bottom. That extra bit of tension over a 10-pack gives you a fuller, rounder low end and a bit more pushback under your pick hand without turning into a wrestling match — great for blues bends and jazz chording alike.
Construction-wise, it’s classic D’Addario: round wound nickel-plated steel over a hex core. The hexagonal core is the real MVP here — its six edges bite into the wrap wire during winding, so the string stays tightly wound instead of loosening up and going dead on you after a few sweaty sets. That’s what gives XL strings their long sustain and bright, articulate voice, whether you’re on a Strat, a hollowbody, or anything in between.
