THE MOST ADVANCED STRINGS EVER MADE
Utilizing our latest innovations in string manufacturing, X-Series offers more string life than ever before without any tonal sacrifice. XS coated strings incorporate an ultra-thin yet durable film coating that provides the longest life of any set of strings, coated or uncoated, along with a comfortably smooth feel. XT uses a unique hydrophobic treatment to extend the life of the strings while retaining a completely natural string feel.
XT & XS Both Feature…
LONGER LASTING ACROSS EVERY STRING
XT & XS both incorporate a unique polymer treatment on the plain steel strings, so every string in the set has added protection from corrosive elements with a tone and feel that last.
Take A Break From Breaking Strings
Our core and steel wire are made from our proprietary NY Steel, which has been proven to increase break resistance up to 41% over standard strings.
Get In Tune, Stay In Tune
Both XT & XS use our proprietary Fusion Twist technology which help them stay in tune up to 131% better than standard strings.
XS Coated Strings
XS is breathing new life into coated strings with an ultra-thin film coating (1/10 the thickness of a human hair) that completely protects the wound strings from corrosion without dampening the tone. Through this advanced coating process and unique polymer treatment, XS offers our highest level of protection with an uncommonly smooth feel.
10X THINNER THAN A HUMAN HAIR.
ULTRA THIN COATING
A tremendous leap forward in coating technology allows the strings to be completely protected from contaminants for lasting tone and maximum life.
SIX SIDES OF STABILITY.
HEX CORE CONSTRUCTION
Precision drawn hexagonal core was pioneered by D'Addario. This innovation allows the wrap wire to grip the core for superior dimensional stability, enhanced durability, and precise intonation.
PREVENTS SLACK, POWERS STABILITY.
FUSION TWIST FEATURE
The fusion twist feature prevents slack in the twist from detuning the string. This ensures maximum tuning stability and higher break strength for our premium plain steel strings.

MIKE DAWES
"XS strings are perfect for the studio - super smooth while reducing finger noise without sacrificing tone. I can't wait to take them on tour!"
ANDY FALCO
"D’Addario XT strings give me added durability and strength without changing the tone or feel of my strings. They hold up on tour or in the studio."
GREG KOCH
"I will say that I love XS strings. They sound great, feel great and take a pummeling for a long time and maintain both a great tone and feel."
PAT METHANY
“I’m incredibly impressed. I’m usually more focused on the notes rather than the strings. But with XT, there’s an evenness and clarity that really jumps out."
