Premium Coated Electric Guitar Strings - Super Light Gauge 9-42

Experience maximum lifespan without sacrificing tone with D'Addario XS Coated 9-42 Electric Guitar Strings. Featuring an ultra-thin film coating on every string in the set, XS strings deliver up to 4x longer life than uncoated strings while maintaining the bright tone and natural feel players demand. The super light 9-42 gauge offers easy bending and fast playability with extended string life.

XS Coating Technology - Maximum Lifespan

XS strings feature D'Addario's thinnest coating ever applied to every wound and plain string in the set. This ultra-thin, polymer treatment protects against corrosion from sweat, humidity, and skin oils without affecting tone or feel. Unlike thicker coatings that can feel slippery or dull, XS strings maintain the bright, natural tone and tactile response of uncoated strings while lasting up to 4 times longer.

Super Light Gauge 9-42 - Fast Playing & Easy Bending

The 9-42 gauge set is ideal for players who demand speed, comfort, and effortless string bending. The lighter tension reduces finger fatigue during extended playing sessions while making techniques like vibrato, bends, and fast runs easier to execute. Perfect for rock, blues, jazz, and shred players who want maximum playability with extended string life.
