Special EXP coating extends string life dramatically without losing that natural feel!

Gauges: .010-.010-.014-.014-.023-.008-.030-.012-.039-.018-.047-.027

An ultrafine layer of EXP Coating is bonded to the 80/20 bronze wrap wire, 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. They offer natural round wound feel and will sound fresh and bright 3 to 4 times longer than traditional guitar strings.

80/20 bronze alloy retains flexibility as well as brilliant tone for many hours of hard play. Computer-controlled wrapping around a hex core ensures consistency and extends life. Many top players won't play any other brand.

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.

BEST BET FOR 12 STRING GUITARS

Posted by evensteven from Portsmouth NH on Apr 21, 2008

Experience w/product: I have used it

Reviewer's Background: active musician

Reviewer's Play Style: classic rock

These Exp's are superior to all other acoustic 12 string sets. The sound better than Elixer's while giving extended life. Also the color coding to the string ends is helpful in both new stringing and replacement. They used to have a gold/copper color to the high E and B stings which was the ultimate look and sound but that's no longer an option. I tune my Taylor 12 string up to regular pitch and these string last for months worth of gigs. Reasonable price for great strings.

I recently purchased a 12-string jumbo acoustic that came with these strings and I've never experienced a brighter or more crisp sound from any other string I've used in my 20 years of playing and will never use another brand on my 12 string.

These are a wonderful alternative to expensive Elixirs. I use those exclusively on my acoustic instruments but wanted to try a cheaper alternative on my new 12 string. These are very pleasant sounding. They have a nice mellow and even tone. They are not as bright as Elixirs but perfectly suited to 12 string acoustics. Worth a try!!!!!!!
