Elixir Strings 80/20 Bronze Acoustic Guitar Strings w NANOWEB Coating, Light (.012-.053)
Prolong your tone with the same acoustic guitar strings that experienced players worldwide trust to keep their incredible tone longer than any other string available. Unlike other string brands, Elixir Strings coats the whole string. This protects not only the outer string surface but also the gaps between the windings where common tone-deadening gunk typically builds up in other brands’ coated and uncoated guitar strings. Anti-Rust Plating on plain steel strings ensures longer tone life for the entire set. Who wouldn’t love more quality playing time between the hassle and cost of string changes? Premium by design, these acoustic strings constructed with 80/20 (80% copper, 20% zinc) bronze wrap wire boast a crisp, bright tone with an expressive, vibrant presence. Compared to our original POLYWEB Coating, the ultra-thin NANOWEB Coating allows a more traditionally textured, “uncoated” feel. For a slicker, gentler feel, try the original POLYWEB Coating on our 80/20 Bronze Acoustic Strings, which also feature a more robust and rounded tone. For more of a balance between bold and bright, our Phosphor Bronze Acoustic Guitar Strings with NANOWEB Coating deliver full-bodied tone and sparkling high-end clarity alongside the same traditional feel as these 80/20 bronze strings. Of course, the kind of string you play is all a matter of personal preference. Not sure what tone or feel is right for you? Try them out for yourself, and find your new favorite string from Elixir Strings. For a more in-depth look at what makes our strings so special, scroll to the branded info further down the page.

Lasts longer than three pack of d’addario I’ve been playing guitar for 7-8 years playing for a couple hours a week and have went through a few brands of strings. But the age-old question is still highly debated – elixir or d’addario?I’ve tried d’addario and when new are much better than the elixir. But for me, after a week they sound from amazing to pretty good. After a month, they sound pretty bad.These elixir strings sounded overly bright and uneven when they were knew but after a few days mellowed out. Now after a…
Love the sound! I absolutely love the sound of these strings. Been playing for about a year fingerstyle acoustic and these sound the best by far. They offer a bright almost whiny tone, very loud and vibrant, easy to hammer on/pull off. Subtle movements on the fret board can be heard that many other strings can’t replicate. Up until now my favorite have been D’Addario coated philosopher bronze which are amazing also, but the sound with the elixer is unmatched. My only criticism is one of the strings coating…
It’s durable and clean looking It’s okay. I decided to try it out because my favorite Independent band, Boyce Avenue, uses the brand and their guitar sounds so nice live. Anyway, they’re durable and lasts long. However, the strings are kind of hard to press compared to the usual strings that I use. Also, I don’t like how it eliminates the squeeky noise when sliding chords and whatnot–makes me feel like I have a silent guitar. The tone is nice and balanced, but not quite bright in my ears. Still giving it a 5 though because…
