X-Rockers are purpose-made guitar strings for drop D or C# tunings. Intended for players who like to play different styles and techniques, X-Rockers does not require you or your guitar tech to modify your guitar. Instead of cobbling together disparate single strings from different gauge sets to get the right feel and sound, just get a set of the new X-Rockers. For D tunings, the 9111 set with gauges: 11, 15, 20, 36, 48, 56 is recommended and then if you go down to C#, use the 9112 set with 12, 16, 22, 38, 48 and a 60 'cable' for the low C#--the maximum allowable size you can use without guitar modification.

X-Rockers have a tight and pure sound with long life and you can play as hard as you like because you won't have to contend with floppy lighter gauges. X-Rockers sell for $10.95 and for more about the Everly Music Company, visit www.everlymusic.com.
