Mella's XSAPB1152

Born from our greatest breakthrough in string innovation, XS Phosphor Bronze strings have the longest life of any D’Addario acoustic guitar string. The XS coating gives our warm, balanced phosphor bronze strings maximum life, with an uncommonly smooth feel. Made with a NY Steel core, phosphor bronze wrap wire, and Fusion Twist technology, XS coated acoustic guitar strings have incomparable break strength and tuning stability, in addition to their dramatically increased lifespan. 11-52 Custom Light strings have slightly more volume and projection than Extra Light, while still being easy to play.

"Honestly, I’ve used D’Addario from day one — since I first started playing guitar. Sometimes I also use NYXL, but now that I’m supported by D’Addario and received the XS strings, I’m really happy. After trying them, they feel very long-lasting and super comfortable to play."
