D'Addario XTAPB1152 XT Phosphor Bronze Coated Acoustic Guitar Strings - .011-.052 Custom Light

Do you wish the strings on your acoustic guitar lasted longer? A set of D’Addario XT strings seeks to grant your wish. These acoustic guitar strings are made from the company’s wildly popular phosphor bronze alloy and provide the durability of a coated string with the feel of a non-coated string. The secret is D’Addario’s Fusion Twist technology and proprietary extended lifespan treatment that applies their thinnest and most durable coating to each string, which prevents corrosion without interfering with their natural feel. XT strings provide a bold sound and an incredible tuning stability that will last through multiple sweaty gigs. 

Hex-core wounds, Fusion Twist steels

Inside each roundwound string in each XS Phosphor Bronze set is a NY Steel hexagonal core — the same as you'll find on a set of your favorite NYXLs or XTs. This angular core gives the wrap wire more surface to grab on to, yielding better tone and intonation. Plain steels in the XS Phosphor Bronze sets feature D'Addario's Fusion Twist technology. This process prevents slack in the twist, resulting in greater resistance against detuning and breaking.
