Brilliant tone and extended life!

Gauges: 13-17-26-35-45-56.

EXP12 Coated strings provide longer life and increased durability coupled with the brightness, clarity and sensitivity you've come to expect from D'Addario acoustic guitar strings. An ultrafine layer of EXP coating is bonded to the phosphor bronze wrap wire which is then wound onto the hex-shaped core wire. The result is a built-in barrier against the corrosion and wear that can quickly sap the life out of your strings and your sound. And since the EXP coating is cross-linked to the wrap wire prior to winding, the strings sound fresh and bright. New-string tone lasts 3 to 4 times longer than traditional guitar strings.

D'Addario is the world's largest manufacturer of strings for musical instruments. Many top guitarists won't play any other brand. Regardless of your playing style, D'Addario has a set that's right for you.

D'Addario EXP12 Strings

I've tried many strings over the years but none that consistantly give the sound clarity and length of service of the EXP12's. I play outside gigs in SW Florida where it is hot and sweaty and these strings have never let me down. I've pounded them hard on an occassional Neil Young tune and have never broken a string. The coating does not flake away and tends to last a long time...even in the hot SW Florida climate. This is the string of choice for me.

Cannot compare to Elixers

Went to purchase the recommended ELIXERS for my new Taylor 410CE. They did not have Elixers so the guy talked me into these. I am not happy with the sound at all. Compared to other brands these are okay but they just don't have the tone on my Taylor that the Elixers do. And the string noise when you are moving your fingers is worse than Martin Marquis'. These are good quality strings...They just can't be compared to ELIXER'S.
