Description
The EXL158 set from D’Addario answers a specific need: strings that feel and sound right on today’s shorter-scale baritone electric guitars, while remaining stable enough to handle deep alternate tunings on a regular electric. Nickel wound construction over a steel core gives you the classic warmth and articulation that nickel strings are known for, without sacrificing low-end definition when you’re tuned well below standard.
- Gauges: .013, .017 plain steel; .026, .036, .046, .062 nickel wound
- Engineered for modern, shorter-scale baritone electric guitars
- Doubles as a down-tuning solution on most standard-scale electrics
- Packaged in corrosion-resistant, environmentally friendly materials to preserve freshness until you break the seal
- Manufactured in the U.S.A. to D’Addario’s quality standards
Whether you’re chasing that low, growling baritone tone or simply want to push your regular guitar into drop territory without floppy strings, this set gives you consistent tension and tone across the full range. It’s a straightforward, dependable choice for players who need extra low-end headroom without switching guitars.
