A Hybrid Gauge for Comfort on Top, Stability on Bottom

With their Light Top/Medium Bottom (12-56) configuration, these XS Phosphor Bronze strings aim for the ideal compromise: soft trebles for chord playing, bends, and fingerstyle, while maintaining tighter bass strings for powerful rhythm and a well-controlled low end. The XS coating is designed to limit brightness loss over time, keeping a more consistent sound between string changes, even with frequent playing.

The XS film fused to the winding protects each wound string against external aggressions, while the unwound strings receive a dedicated polymer treatment. Add to this the NY Steel (high carbon content) and Fusion Twist construction, and you get a set of strings designed to last, stay stable, and withstand energetic attack. XS strings also come with a registration code to earn "Players Circle" points.
