D'Addario XL Nickel Wound strings are the standard against which all other electric guitar strings are measured, and they've been a player favorite since 1974. A high carbon steel core wrapped in nickel-plated steel wire gives them a bright, versatile voice that works across a wide range of musical styles.

This Super Light Plus set runs .0095-.044, landing right between a typical set of 9s and a set of 10s. It's a great option if 9s feel a little slack and 10s feel a little stiff, and it's especially useful for balancing tension between guitars with different scale lengths.

Every D'Addario electric set is built on the company's proprietary Hex-Core for accurate intonation, consistent feel, and reliable durability. XL Nickel strings are drawn to exacting specifications at D'Addario's New York production facility and arrive in a recyclable VCI bag with a code you can register to earn Players Circle points.

  • 9.5-44 Super Light Plus gauge — between 9s and 10s
  • Nickel-plated steel wrap over a high carbon steel hex core
  • Round wound, uncoated, 6-string set
  • Bright, versatile tone suited to all genres

The Sweet Spot Gauge

At 9.5-44, this set sits right between 9s and 10s. You get a bit more substance under the fingers than a super light set without the extra stiffness of a regular set.

Consistent Guitar To Guitar

Super Light Plus is a smart way to balance string tension across instruments with different scale lengths, so your setups feel more alike when you switch guitars.

Plays Well In Any Style

The bright, versatile tone of nickel-plated steel suits everything from clean rhythm work to high-gain leads, which is why XL Nickel has been a go-to since 1974.

Nickel-Plated Steel Wrap

The nickel-plated steel wrap wire delivers the bright, versatile electric tone XL Nickel is known for.

High Carbon Steel Core

A high carbon steel core backs up the wrap wire for strength and consistent response.

Proprietary Hex-Core

Like all D'Addario electric sets, XL Nickel uses the company's hex-shaped core for perfect intonation, consistent feel, and reliable durability.

Round Wound Construction

Traditional round wound construction gives the strings their familiar texture and attack.

Super Light Plus 9.5-44

A six-string set gauged .0095-.044, positioned between standard 9s and 10s.

Uncoated Strings

No coating means natural feel and unfiltered response straight off the fretboard.
