XT are our longest lasting classical strings, combining centuries of D'Addario expertise with modern coating technology. The Dynacore bass strings in this XT set use a revolutionary multi-filament nylon core processing technique to deliver unparalleled intonation, responsive attack, and crystal-clear projection—and with addition of our proprietary XT coating, a significantly extended lifespan. Coupled with our Carbon trebles, which are the brightest, best projecting trebles we have to offer, XT Dynacore is the most advanced classical string available. This Normal Tension set is our best-selling tension, preferred for its balance of rich tone, comfortable feel, and dynamic projection.
