D’Addario XS Phosphor Bronze 12-53 Light acoustic strings are a strong choice for players who want a balanced acoustic feel with extended string life.

This set uses D’Addario’s XS coating with phosphor bronze wrap wire, NY Steel core, and Fusion Twist technology for a smooth feel, solid break strength, and improved tuning stability. The 12-53 Light gauge is one of the most popular acoustic gauges because it gives players a comfortable balance of playability, volume, and tone.

A solid everyday upgrade for acoustic players who want coated strings without losing the familiar warmth and clarity of phosphor bronze.
