D'Addario XS 12/53

D'Addario XS Phosphor Bronze Coated Acoustic Guitar Strings, Light 12-53

Born from D'Addario's greatest breakthrough in string innovation, XS Phosphor Bronze strings offer the longest life of any D'Addario acoustic guitar string. An ultra-thin polymer coating on every wound string, along with a unique treatment on the plain steels, delivers the highest level of protection and maximum lifespan while retaining an uncommonly smooth, natural feel.

Built with a high-tensile NY Steel core and D'Addario's exclusive Fusion Twist ball-end construction, XS strings offer incomparable break strength and tuning stability, staying in tune 131% better than standard acoustic strings. The coating shields the phosphor bronze winding from corrosion and buildup without dampening tone, letting the characteristic warmth, richness, and sparkle of phosphor bronze shine through for up to 200 hours of playing time.
