D'Addario XT Super Lite

D’Addario XT Super Light Electric Guitar Strings (.009–.042)

Extended Life, Natural Feel
D’Addario XT Super Light strings combine the tone and feel of traditional uncoated strings with advanced corrosion resistance. Designed for players who want their strings to last longer without sacrificing playability, the XT series uses a thin, hydrophobic coating that preserves tone and feel—so you can bend, shred, and sustain like normal, with extra protection built in.

Crisp Tone, Smooth Playability
These .009–.042 Super Light strings are easy on the fingers and great for fast, expressive playing. Whether you're practicing, recording, or gigging, they offer bright highs, solid mids, and tight lows, with the signature D’Addario clarity and balance.
