D'Addario XS Phosphor Bronze Coated Acoustic Guitar Strings 11-52

These XS strings are worth every single penny. The Custom Light gauge strikes the absolute perfect balance—easy on the fingers for practicing chord transitions and smooth bends, while still retaining a full, rich low end. The ultra-thin coating is completely unnoticeable under your fingers and successfully eliminates any of that annoying finger squeak, but best of all, it keeps them sounding brand new for months. Even with daily practice sessions, the tone stays bright and crisp, and the tuning stability is rock-solid. A fantastic investment for any acoustic guitar player!

I am thoroughly pleased with these guitar strings. they’re probably twice as much as average strings, but they’re worth every penny. Plus I really believe they save me from buying another guitar. Because my old guitar sounds incredible now. But more than sounds incredible. It’s so much easier to play. We’re talking an acoustic guitar that plays about as easy as an electric guitar now. Yes they’re expensive. But I understand they last much longer than regular strings. If you’re serious about Guitar playing go ahead and invest the money. You will not regret it. I recommend you buy a three pack. You can economize a little bit that way

They sound absolutely amazing and feel so good amazing packaging and and amazing feel when playing with picks or fingers Will buy again when they break 💯💯

These strings sound real good on all three of my guitars. Two Taylor’s and one Martin. They last a long time, usually I replace them only once a year. Comfortable on the fingers.

What else can I say about D’Addario? They are and always have been my favorite brand of strings for all of my guitars acoustic and electric. Have a plan since I was a kid and now I’m 61 years old, always a favorite of mine.

I like the sound and feel of these strings. They are comfortable to play and have a very nice tone. I’m using the 10-52 gauge on 00 and 000 bodies. I previously used D’addario Phosphor Bronze which sounded brighter to me, and were less comfortable to play, even though the string tension is basically the same. I prefer the warmer tone of the “XS” strings. I have not tried them on a larger body. The only thing I don’t care for is the packaging. They are wrapped in pairs and identified by a black or brass end. My eyes aren’t great and I prefer strings that are color coded or wrapped individually. Just my preference.

Perfect

I've played guitar my whole life. Never have I had strings provide such crisp and perfect sound. These are my new go to strings

Good. After 2 months of everyday use, signs of fraying or corrosion are only present on some wound strings around 2nd and 3rd fret and on G string around picking area, but the strings still sound like new. This gauge has perfect balance of tone and tension across strings.

Super

I tried a pack, based on a friend's recommendation. The tone lasts a lot longer than I expected. Really good quality Strings.

Le corde della chitarra sono una scelta molto soggettiva, al di là di questa scontata ma doverosa premessa, ho trovato queste d’addario semplicemente ottime sotto tutti gli aspetti che ritengo importanti: suono (a differenza di altre coated), morbidezza/suonabilità, durata. Se non le avete mai provate, fatelo, potrebbero diventare le vostre preferite, come è successo a me.

Atrocious sound, my Taylor AD22 suddenly sounds like a fish can. I wanted to scale down to 011 to ease the tension on the fingers...I did so on another Taylor guitar with Martin light strings o11 and got the ease and a mellow sound, not this shrill metal string sound.
