NYXL0980 is designed for 8-string players who want super light gauges for maximum flexibility. This set is balanced for longer scale length instruments. DAddario NYXL guitar strings will bend farther, sing louder, and stay in tune better than any string you've played before.

Envisioned, perfected, and manufactured by DAddario in New York, this newly engineered, break-resistant, high-carbon steel core and plain steel alloy delivers a whole new level of freedom, confidence, and power. NYXLs provide more strength and up to 131% greater tuning stability by utilizing a completely reinvented wire drawing process coupled with a revolutionary fusion twist process for the plain steels.

The reformulated nickel-plated string windings have greater magnetic properties resulting in higher output and enhanced mid-range frequency response for more presence and crunch.
