The D'Addario XTC45 is the normal tension set in the XT Classical line, D'Addario's extended-life classical string. The basses carry a very thin coating that protects the silver-plated winding from sweat and oxidation, so they keep their brightness several times longer than uncoated strings, while the trebles are the same precisely intonating Pro-Arté clear nylon. Unlike earlier coated strings, the XT coating is thin enough that tone and feel stay very close to a standard Pro-Arté set.
The best choice for players whose hands are hard on strings, who play daily, or who simply want to change strings less often. Normal tension keeps the feel comfortable on any guitar.
D’Addario XT Classical strings combine our premium, precisely intonating Pro-Arté trebles with our proprietary Composite basses enhanced with our advanced corrosion resistance treatment to deliver dynamic response and enduring tone. Available in normal, hard, and extra-hard tensions.
Stand the test of time with strings that endure. D’Addario XT strings combine our strongest high carbon steel with an advanced corrosion resistance treatment on every string in the set, giving you enhanced break resistance and unyielding pitch stability—all while preserving the tone and feel of your favorite uncoated strings. These strings are made to stay, with uncompromising performance that never fades away.
