The D'Addario XTC46 is the hard tension XT Classical set. XT basses have an ultra-thin protective coating over the silver-plated winding that resists corrosion and keeps the strings sounding fresh far longer than uncoated basses, with tone and feel almost indistinguishable from a standard Pro-Arté. Trebles are laser-sorted clear nylon. Hard tension adds projection and a firmer feel compared with the normal-tension XTC45.
Ideal for performers and heavy practicers who want the EJ46 sound without the frequent string changes.
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.
