The D'Addario XT Phosphor Bronze set combines the industry-standard warm, well-balanced tone that players have loved since 1974 with cutting-edge string technology. Each string is treated with an advanced corrosion-resistant coating that significantly extends lifespan while meticulously preserving the natural feel and brilliant acoustic voice of an uncoated string. Beneath the coating, the strings feature D'Addario's high-carbon "NY Steel" core and "Fusion Twist" technology, delivering unrivaled break resistance and 131% greater tuning stability compared to traditional sets. The 12-53 "Light" gauge remains the most popular choice for acoustic players, offering the perfect balance of volume, projection, and comfortable playability. Proudly made in the USA.
