This video was brought to you in collaboration with D’Addario & Co. We are grateful for their support and we enjoyed making this video in partnership with them. D'Addario XL Nickel Plated Steel for electric guitar are the "Player's Choice," known for delivering a universally appealing and versatile tone, no matter your playing style.
