A reliable replacement string to keep your playing at its best
The D'Addario NYS026 "Pure Steel 26" (single) is a simple and effective solution to replace a broken string without changing the entire set. With its 26 gauge, it maintains the tension balance of your set and quickly restores the same playing comfort, finger response, and tonal consistency across the entire neck.
Drawing from D'Addario's expertise, this string aligns with the spirit of the XL electric strings, renowned as a benchmark thanks to their combination of tone, flexibility, and longevity. The design features a carefully machined carbon steel core, paired with precise winding, contributing to excellent intonation and a consistent feel, highly appreciated both in the studio and on stage.
Whether you play rock, blues, pop, funk, or metal, this string delivers a distinctive brightness and clear definition while maintaining good tuning stability. Ideal if you want to keep your usual setup (for example an EXL110 type set) while replacing only the necessary string.
