D'Addario XS Series 10-46 Regular Light, Nickel Coated Electric Guitar Strings

D’Addario’s XSE1046 coated electric strings are built for players who want the familiar feel of a classic 10–46 set with dramatically extended life and consistent brightness. The XSE coating is ultra‑thin, designed to preserve the natural response of nickel‑wound strings while protecting them from sweat, humidity, and corrosion. You get the smooth, balanced tension of a traditional regular‑light set, but with a cleaner top end and a tone that stays lively far longer than uncoated options.

Across Greenwood and the Upstate South Carolina music scene, guitarists deal with real‑world conditions—long practice nights, outdoor gigs, and plenty of humidity. XSE strings thrive in that environment, maintaining tuning stability and clarity even after heavy weekly use. Whether you’re recording in an Upstate studio, playing shows around the Lakelands, or dialing in your home rig, the XSE1046 set delivers reliable performance with a polished, modern feel.

At Newell’s Music in Greenwood, SC, we stock XSE because they offer a noticeable upgrade in longevity without sacrificing the natural touch players expect from D’Addario. Electric players who want regular‑light tension with extended life and consistent tone often choose this set as their everyday go‑to. Every pack is inspected before it goes on the wall, and our team is always ready to help you match the perfect gauge and construction to your guitar and playing style.
