A Hybrid Set Designed for Comfort... and Impact
The D'Addario NB1256 Nickel Bronze Light Top / Med Bottom 12-56 is aimed at acoustic guitarists who want a clear and present sound without sacrificing playability. Thanks to its combination of "Light" trebles and "Medium" basses, you enjoy a more relaxed left hand on the thinner strings (ideal for bends, vibratos, and chord transitions), while maintaining a solid foundation in the lower register. The result: basses that carry, a well-defined attack, and clarity that helps your guitar stand out in a mix, whether in a duo or a band.
