EXL130 is D'Addario's lightest gauge string set. Great for beginners or players who require strings with the lightest possible tension and greatest ease of play.
​
Frank says: Great for people who require less tension on there strings (for whatever reason) - Jimi Hendrix, Billy Gibbons etc have used really low tension strings. Some say they don't sound the greatest compared to thicker strings... Can be prone to rattle, so your guitar needs to be set up well!

EXL110+, with its 10.5 gauge high E, is the ideal "step up" string set for players who are moving up from 10 to 11 gauge sets. Additionally, it's great for balancing tension between various scale length guitars. If you play 10s on a 25 1/2" scale guitar, try EXL110+ for your shorter scale length instruments to maintain more consistent feel and playability.
​
Frank says: Thicker strings tend to work best for those who naturally use a more forceful grip when playing the guitar. Those who use, or have used there hands for a living mostly find thicker strings beneficial
