D'Addario EXL140-8
Anonymous 13.07.2014
I bought these when I purchased my new 8 string, Ibanez S8QM as I wanted to try something heavier to the 9-65 set which came with the guitar. The D'Addario string set came covered in a plastic wallet inside a cardboard box. For anyone who hasn't used D'Addario strings before, each string comes with a different coloured ball end, which are indicated on the plastic wallet, making re-stringing a breeze and add some colour to the bridge of the guitar. The strings are very bright sounding and remain feeling fresh for a long time, which for me was roughly a month of daily practise and playing sessions, which is something I had never been able to achieve with other string brands. I would definitely recommend this set for any 8 string guitar user.

Great strings

These do exactly what they should. Don't let yourself be fooled into buying anything but a fresh new set of strings all around for an 8 string; no, you don't want to use a thin bass string for the low F sharp, and no it's not worth replacing just the top 7 in the hopes the low F sharp will sound the same anyway. Good strings, nice and bright, decent life and a new string application takes a lot of muddiness out of your low strings. Invest in these regularly for live performances.

As always with Dadarrio, these strings provide a clear tone, good durability and stay tuned for extended periods, not too heavy on that low string either.

For me the gauges are perfect for a 7-string guitar, you just cut off the 64 from the pack and you are ready to set the other 7 strings into your guitar.
