The D'Addario NYXL1260 Extra Heavy Electric Guitar Strings, built for professional guitarists who demand the ultimate in tone and performance. NYXL strings are D'Addario's most advanced string technology to date, featuring an innovative high-carbon steel core and nickel-plated wrap wire for a modern tone with superior intonation and tuning stability. The reformulated wrap wire provides a subtle boost in output for enhanced crunch and articulation. With gauges ranging from .012 to .060, the NYXL1260 set delivers the thick, booming tone perfect for drop tunings and aggressive styles of playing.

High-Carbon Steel Core Provides Unparalleled Strength

The NYXL1260 strings is a high-carbon steel core that provides greater tensile strength over traditional strings. This added strength allows the strings to bend farther without breaking and stay in tune better after heavy play. The steel core is also highly resistant to corrosion, keeping your tone consistent through environmental changes. Combined with a plain steel alloy, the core helps reduce unwanted overtones for a clear, focused tone with rich harmonics.

Nickel-Plated Wrap Wire Boosts Output and Sustain

D'Addario revolutionized the wrap wire drawing process to create an entirely new nickel-plated wrap wire for the NYXL series. The reformulated wrap wire has greater magnetic properties, resulting in higher output and enhanced midrange frequency response for more crunch and sustain. The wrap wire is also more resistant to corrosion and boasts a longer lifespan, so your tone stays bright and lively gig after gig.

Familiar Feel with Superior Performance

While the materials and technology behind NYXL strings are highly advanced, they still maintain the comfortable feel and familiar tone D'Addario strings are known for. The NYXL1260 set features a standard ball end for quick installation on your favorite guitar. Once installed, you'll immediately notice their superior performance, as NYXL strings stay in tune through heavy bends, aggressive techniques, and changes in temperature or humidity. Experience the cutting edge of string technology and take your tone to new heights with D'Addario NYXL1260 Extra Heavy Electric Guitar Strings.
