D'Addario EXL120 Twin Pack — 2 Sets + Free Blue Peg Winder

The D'Addario EXL120 Twin Pack gives you two sets of D'Addario's Super Light electric guitar strings — the EXL120 — plus a free NVE Blue Peg Winder. Two sets means you always have a backup ready. The free peg winder cuts your string change time in half. Stock up now and change strings when they need it — not when you finally get around to buying more.

Angkor Music — Who the EXL120 Is For

The EXL120 Super Light is the string of choice for players who prioritise effortless bending, light touch and maximum fretting speed. The .009 top string requires noticeably less finger pressure than a .010 set — making wide bends, fast legato runs and extended playing sessions more comfortable. Players with smaller hands, those working on technique, or anyone who finds .010s slightly stiff will appreciate the difference immediately. If you already know the EXL120 is your string — this pack is simply the sensible way to buy them.

D'Addario EXL120 — Super Light Electric Guitar Strings

The D'Addario EXL120 is D'Addario's Super Light electric guitar string — a .009-.042 nickel wound set that is the preferred choice for players who want the lightest comfortable gauge without sacrificing tone or durability. The .009 high E provides effortless bending and fast, responsive action while the nickel wound lower strings deliver D'Addario's characteristic clear, bright, balanced tone.

  • Gauge: .009-.042 — super light gauge for effortless bending and fast fretting
  • Nickel Wound: Bright, clear tone with smooth feel under the fingers
  • NY Steel Core: D'Addario's proprietary NY steel for consistent tension and durability
  • Corrosion-Resistant Packaging: Each set individually sealed — arrives fresh every time
  • Made in the USA: Manufactured in D'Addario's New York facility
  • Ideal for: Lead players, blues, rock, players with smaller hands, anyone who finds .010s too stiff

Frequently Asked Questions

What gauge are D'Addario EXL120 strings?
The EXL120 is a Super Light set gauged .009 .011 .016 .024 .032 .042. The .009 high E makes bending and fretting noticeably easier than heavier gauges — ideal for lead players, players with lighter touch and anyone who finds .010 strings slightly stiff.

What is the difference between EXL120 Super Light and EXL110 Regular Light?
The EXL110 Regular Light is gauged .010-.046 — slightly heavier than the EXL120. The heavier gauge produces a slightly fuller tone with more sustain and volume, but requires a little more finger pressure to bend and fret. The EXL120's .009 gauge is easier to play but some players find it slightly thinner in tone. If you want maximum playability choose .009 — if you want the best balance of tone and playability choose .010.

How often should I change my electric guitar strings?
For regular players every four to six weeks. For gigging musicians after every performance or two at most. Lighter gauge strings like the EXL120 can lose their brightness slightly faster than heavier strings under hard playing — having a backup set on hand means you change them when they need it.

What is the peg winder notch used for?
The notch on the NVE peg winder grips and pulls acoustic guitar bridge pins cleanly without damaging the bridge or pins. It is a practical dual-function tool for both electric and acoustic players.

Does the peg winder work on all guitars?
Yes. The NVE peg winder fits standard machine head tuning pegs on virtually all electric, acoustic and bass guitars.
