D'Addario NYL058W Single Guitar String

Pro Arté Classical Single String — Silver-Plated Copper Bass

The D'Addario NYL058W is a single wound bass string from the Pro Arté classical series, designed as a direct replacement for the low E on a standard classical guitar or as a building block for custom string sets. Silver-plated copper is wound over a multi-filament nylon core, the same construction used across the Pro Arté bass lineup, to deliver a warm, projecting tone with the balanced response classical players expect. At .058" / 1.47 mm, it matches the standard low-E position on most 6-string classicals and works equally well as the sub-bass on 7- or 8-string instruments.

Who It's For

This single string is the right choice for classical guitarists who need a replacement low-E without buying a full set, and for players building custom tension or extended-range sets. It fits standard 6-string classicals as the 6th string and serves as the 7th on Brazilian-style violão de sete cordas or other multi-string builds. The Pro Arté construction suits traditional classical repertoire, fingerstyle work, and any player who wants the warm, projecting bass character of silver-plated copper on a nylon core.
