Hybrid Gauge 8-string Set for a Powerful Low End

Hard on electric guitar strings? Guitarists are excited about D'Addario NYXL strings because they sound great, bend farther, and stay in tune better - even after a couple of sweaty gigs - than just about anything else we've played. D'Addario uses a high-carbon steel core with a unique fusion twist process for the plain strings. NYXL's reformulated nickel-plated string windings have increased magnetic properties that give you higher output and juiced midrange for greater presence and crunch. If you're dissatisfied with your electric guitar strings, give D'Addario NYXL strings an audition. You'll be impressed.

Optimized for extended-scale guitars, D'Addario's NYXL1074 8-string electric guitar strings feature heavier low strings, providing you with a more powerful low end for heavy chording and flexible plain steel strings for bending.

D'Addario - Making strings for over 300 years

Behind every set of D'Addario strings are over three centuries of fine craftsmanship. The D'Addario family tradition began in the tiny town of Salle, Italy, in 1680, where they made assorted instrument strings for over 200 years before relocating to New York in 1905. As the modern string-making industry began to develop, the D'Addario family emerged as innovators by designing the winding machine most string makers still use today. Although their techniques have modernized, the pride that goes into each set of strings dates back to the D'Addario family's earliest roots.
