Re-engineered to be stronger for enhanced output.
D'Addario's NYXL0942 Super Light Electric Guitar Strings are a revolutionary set of strings from the iconic American string maker. Featuring high carbon steel cores and nickel-plated wrap wire, these strings offer peerless strength, tuning stability, and tone. Guitar players of all levels will appreciate the improved frequency response, added output, and effortless playability.
At the heart of NYXL0942 strings are high carbon steel cores that deliver up to 131% greater break resistance compared to standard strings. This allows for extreme bends, aggressive techniques, and altered tunings without fear of breakage. The steel also helps these strings hold tune better over time, even with heavy use, so you can focus on your playing rather than constantly tuning.
NYXL0942 strings utilize nickel-plated wrap wire that provides a subtle boost between 1 and 3.5 kHz, resulting in a punchier, more articulate tone with enhanced note definition. This sonic upgrade gives your guitar a modernized voice that cuts through the mix with clarity and authority. Combined with the steel cores, these strings deliver a blend of power and nuance that inspires confident, expressive playing.
With NYXL0942 strings, playability is priority number one. Their flexible, nickel-plated wrap wire and tapered plain steel strings allow for smooth bends and a slinky feel under your fingers. An ultra-thin gauge set, NYXL0942 strings have a light, airy quality that reduces fatigue over long practice sessions and performances. They are an ideal choice for shredders, fusion players, or anyone seeking a fast, fluid playing experience.
For over 300 years, D'Addario has crafted premium instrument strings using innovative designs and manufacturing processes. NYXL0942 strings benefit from this rich heritage and are built to the most exacting standards. From high carbon steel and nickel alloys to corrosion resistant packaging, every element is optimized for tone, durability, and consistency. When you choose NYXL0942 strings, you choose a brand devoted to the needs of musicians worldwide.
