Review: Best strings ever (if I do say so myself) - I'm a bassist just taking up guitar, so I couldn't stand light strings--they're too small, and I felt like I would break them by bending (and they just kept stretching and stretching, which drove me nuts because I didn't want to retune after every single bend even after hours of play time). Some of it, I'm sure is just me being a bassist used to having some actual string there to grab, but lights just flew out of my hand because they were too fine (and I'm a girl with tiny hands, so it's not like I have super big paws that would make it understandable). So I got mediums instead, knowing that I wanted steel rather than nickel from playing bass (for both tone and nickel-sensitivites). They're a lot better at holding their tuning, and once they've stretched properly, they keep it pretty well. Watch the G string in particular because it stretches the most. I'm biased because I'm a bassist, and when I first got a guitar, I felt like I was holding someone else's tiny, delicate toy, so if you don't have a lot of finger strength, you may want to go with light gauge instead. But for people with strong hands, mediums will be better. Now if only I could remember not to fret so hard... Review: It has lots of sliding noise when moving from fret to fret. - It's been months and I have been playing daily! I should probably change them for the sake of maintaining the guitar. Length is generous. Smoothness? It has a slide noise when moving from fret to fret. I like it as it may be useful someday. The tuning holds fairly even after a couple of months of usage. I should also add that I clean my strings with ernie ball string wipes then dry them with a cloth. Weight is light. No issue with installing the strings. The pack provides different colored ends to make it easier on gauge placement. Definitely worth purchase.

No indications to nickel at all. **Q: Do these work decent for drop c and drop b?** A: I play in D standard, drop C , C# standard and they stay in tune just fine. There’s a period of adjustment (stretching) like any string. But they stay in tune well. And they don’t break nearly as often. Used to break strings @ the bridge but these don’t. I would go up a gauge for drop B for sure. But these are all I use for all my guitars (they make acoustic strings too) **Q: How many packs of stings do you get? I can get two for this amount at sweetwater!** A: All D'Addario's are available as single sets or in 3 packs. You didn't indicate the price. Single sets are $10.99 : 3 packs are $31.76. I don't use this set. I use Pro Steel .08's which I find too bright for general use. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best strings ever (if I do say so myself) *by J***S on April 23, 2019* I'm a bassist just taking up guitar, so I couldn't stand light strings--they're too small, and I felt like I would break them by bending (and they just kept stretching and stretching, which drove me nuts because I didn't want to retune after every single bend even after hours of play time).

You can feel and hear the difference right away. I think they sound best after a few hours of playing. ## Frequently Bought Together - D'Addario Guitar Strings - ProSteels Electric Guitar Strings - Round Wound - Brighter, Crunchier, Increased Sustain - EPS515 - Medium, 11-50 - D'Addario Guitar Strings - XL Nickel Electric Guitar Strings - EXL120-7 - Perfect Intonation, Consistent Feel, Reliable Durability - For 7 String Guitars - 09-54 Super Light 7-String - D'Addario Guitar Strings - NYXL Electric Guitar Strings, NYXL0942 Unrivaled Strength, Tuning Stability, Enhanced Mid-Range For 6 String Guitars, Nickel, 09-42 Super Light --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.lk/products/11970719-guitar-strings-prosteels-electric-guitar-strings-round-wound-brighter-crunchier](https://www.desertcart.lk/products/11970719-guitar-strings-prosteels-electric-guitar-strings-round-wound-brighter-crunchier) --- *Product available on Desertcart Sri Lanka* *Store origin: LK* *Last updated: 2026-07-07*
