The benefit to the play is that pressing on one string feels essentially the same as pressing on any other string. This is especially important for string-bending. Once you learn how much pressure is necessary to bend one string to increase the pitch 1/2 step (for example), the same pressure will increase the pitch 1/2 step on any other string. **Q: Are these strings coated? The "XL" implies so...** A: NYXL strings are not coated, and XL is just a product series/family name, which does not imply any specific product specs. - Steve @ D'Addario **Q: So what do you Blues players have to say about these strings?** A: Depends on the type of blues you play.... If you lean more toward "Delta", you probably wont like these much 'cause they give you more bottom end and highs and get rid of that muddy low-mid much sought-after in that style. Otherwise, many of us who pursue the more recent guitar gods (aka Hendrix, Stevie Ray, Page, etc.) will probably find these strings to be a nice "push" - to some, it will be like adding well-needed air to a deflating balloon. **Q: Ya but does it djent?** A: My answer is yes. Great for metal and black metal. Not sure about math metal but I would stick with yes. Nita Strauss does solo work in heavy metal and only uses these strings. Same goes for me , and the many guitarists I play with. Used them in Vegas and received many compliments. To really enhance your sound your pedal board will need some adjustments.. You can also check https:/djenthub.com. Between my son, who has ten Solar guitars ,and my seven guitars, esp my Steve Vai blue floral jemm 77p and my Nita Strauss signature jiva 10 these are the only strings we use Good luck is your decision. Just keep in mind we all hear and feel things differently but so many of the musicians I play with all use these strings. Keep on rockin. And keep metal alive ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best strings *by V***R on April 1, 2026* I’ve tried so many different strings. These to me feel the best. Durable ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Tone Heaven *by A***R on February 10, 2026* The NYXL has to be the best set of strings I've ever used. They're well made, very long-lasting and the tone is oh so sweet. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ At $10=GREAT strings! At $20=OK strings. *by _***_ on September 1, 2014* My favorite strings at this point are also from D'addario, but they are the pure nickel EPN version. NYXL seem equally as easily bendable, and good sounding but a bit clearer. These are pleasingly clear strings. I would say they are bright compared to the EPN pure nickel, but more like CLEAR with just a subtle hint of midrange bump in the right place to bring out the sound of your guitar. I almost can't decide if I like these enough to keep using them, but they seem to be pretty physically strong & they didn't need any stretching to keep tune. (although I did stretch them out of habit & for good measure). The prices for NYXL stings at this time is anywhere from around $10-25 per set, although they seem to hover around $15-20 at retailers in my neck of the woods. (SoCal). If I could pick these up for around $20 for 3 sets, I would probably make these my go-to. But I really prefer the smoother sound of EPN pure nickels (although only by a little-bit). Over all I would definitely recommend these strings, but I also recommend to shop around for the best bargain, as these seem to be over-priced in many places. I would say these are great strings at $7-10, but average at the $15-20 range. A fair price for these in my opinion is $12-15, since they are new. I think these should settle in at $7-10 when the price settles. I don't know how long it will take for these to begin to dull, I have used them for about 3 days & they are still bright as new. ## Frequently Bought Together - D'Addario Guitar Strings - NYXL Electric Guitar Strings - NYXL0942 - Unrivaled Strength, Tuning Stability, Enhanced Mid-Range - For 6 String Guitars - 09-42 Super Light - D'Addario Accessories Pro-Winder Guitar String Winder, Cutter, Bridge Pin Puller - All in One Guitar Tool - Black - MusicNomad F-ONE Fretboard Oil Cleaner & Conditioner 2 oz (MN105) --- ## 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.vn/products/5819942-electric-guitar-strings-nyxl-nickel-plated-nyxl0942-super-light-gauge](https://www.desertcart.vn/products/5819942-electric-guitar-strings-nyxl-nickel-plated-nyxl0942-super-light-gauge) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vietnam* *Store origin: VN* *Last updated: 2026-05-16*
