D'Addario PL010 Plain Steel Guitar Single String, .010

PL010
The .010 high E on its own, in plain steel, at home on a 10-46 electric or a 10-47 acoustic alike.
The D'Addario PL010 is a single .010 plain steel guitar string. It is a versatile high E: D'Addario uses it to open both its 10-46 electric set and its 10-47 acoustic set.

Frequently asked questions
- Is the .010 in a D'Addario acoustic set the same as the one in an electric set?
- Yes: D'Addario lists the same part number, PL010, at the top of its 10-46 electric and 10-47 acoustic sets.
- Can I replace just the .010 high E that broke?
- Yes. If the rest of the set is well worn, though, many players prefer to change everything.
- Does the PL010 have a coating?
- None: the steel is left bare, with no protective layer.
