D'Addario NYXL Electric Guitar Strings Heavy 12-54
D'Addario NYXL Electric Guitar Strings — Heavy 12-54
The Modern Standard for Rock and Modern Genres
The D'Addario NYXL Electric Guitar Strings in Heavy 12-54 are built around proprietary NY Steel core wire, drawn and processed at D'Addario's New York facility. The result is a string set that holds tune dramatically better than legacy designs, hits harder under heavy picking, and pushes a brighter midrange that cuts through a band mix.
Built to Stay in Tune
D'Addario's Fusion Twist process locks the wrap wire to the hex-shaped NY Steel core with up to 131% better tuning stability than standard nickel-wound strings. Bend, vibrato, and aggressive tremolo work all settle back to pitch fast - no chronic detuning between songs.
Construction
- Core: NY Steel - a reformulated high-carbon steel, up to 40% stronger than the industry-standard core wire.
- Wrap: Reformulated nickel-plated steel for accentuated midrange presence and crunch.
- Process: Fusion Twist technology for superior tuning stability.
- Finish: Round wound, uncoated.
