Description
Need just one string to finish a custom set or replace a broken one mid-gig? The D’Addario NW017 delivers a single .017 gauge string from the XL Nickel Wound line, the series that’s earned D’Addario its reputation as “The Player’s Choice” among electric guitarists across genres.
- .017 gauge, nickel-plated steel wrap over a hexagonal high-carbon steel core
- Round wound construction for a bright, articulate tone with strong intonation
- Sold individually — perfect for replacing a snapped string or building a personalized gauge set
- Manufactured in the U.S.A. on precision digitally controlled equipment
The hex-shaped core is drawn to tight tolerances before being wound with nickel-plated steel, giving the string reliable pitch stability and a tone that stays clear whether you’re playing clean or pushing gain. Because it’s available as a single, you’re not stuck buying a full pack just to swap one broken high or low string, and players who prefer non-standard tunings or hybrid sets can dial in exactly the gauges they want.
D’Addario backs every string with packaging designed to guard against corrosion before it ever reaches your case, so this single performs just as consistently as the strings in a full XL set.
