D'Addario EXL148, C-tuning (12-60)
D'Addario EXL148 is a heavy-gauge electric guitar string set designed for lower tunings, especially C tuning. With a powerful 12–60 gauge range, this set delivers increased tension, strong low-end response, and excellent tuning stability when playing heavy riffs, modern metal, doom, stoner rock, or any style that needs a tight and controlled low register.
Made with D'Addario’s classic nickel-plated steel wrap wire over a high-carbon steel core, EXL148 strings provide a bright, balanced tone with clear attack and reliable sustain. The heavier bottom strings keep the sound focused and defined, even with high-gain distortion, while the plain strings remain responsive for bends and expressive lead playing.
A great choice for players who tune down but still want a familiar feel, stable intonation, and the proven tone of D'Addario XL strings.

- Nickel-plated steel for bright, balanced tone

Every guitar in our store is completely checked and set up by our guitar luthiers so that the guitar is easy to play yet without buzz. And if you have any special wishes regarding setup - tell us (or specify) when making an order and we will be happy to make a perfect guitar for you :)
Also, you have to keep in mind that wood is a living material. Guitar’s geometry changes a little over time, adjusting to temperature and humidity, so there is no setup that can last forever. To save you a headache, we have a free setup service for our instruments! If you feel that something is off you can bring it to us so that we can return everything to it’s perfect original state.
For online orders we manually pack each guitar into a ton of wraps and carton and also have full insurance for all our shippings. So that you wouldn’t worry that something might happen on the way.
