Light on top, heavy on bottom – D'Addario EXL140 for drop-tuning and riff work
The D'Addario EXL140 is the preferred string set for guitarists who detune but still want smooth playability on the high strings. With a light top (10) and heavy bottom (52), you combine the ease of a light touch for leads and bends with the extra tension and punch you need for drop-D, drop-C, or other lowered tunings. Ideal for metal, hard rock, and guitarists who combine heavy riff work with melodic lead passages.
Wound with nickel-plated steel on a hexagonal steel core, the EXL140 delivers a bright, powerful tone with a tight attack on the low strings and a smooth response on the high strings. The 10-13-17-30-42-52 gauge makes this set particularly suitable for guitarists who frequently switch between rhythm and lead playing in lowered tunings. Produced in the USA with D'Addario's strict quality control.
