D’Addario XT Phosphor Bronze Coated Acoustic Strings 13-56– XTAPB1356
Bright, Balanced Tone for Acoustic Guitar
DAddario XT Phosphor Bronze 13-56 coated acoustic guitar strings deliver a clear, bright tone with warm, full-bodied lows. The phosphor bronze wrap enhances harmonic richness and projection. Therefore, these coated acoustic guitar strings are ideal for strumming, fingerpicking, and versatile acoustic playing.
XT Coating for Long-Lasting Durability
D’Addario XT strings feature an advanced XT coating that protects against corrosion, sweat, and grime. As a result, the strings maintain their tone longer and provide consistent performance. In addition, the smooth coating reduces finger noise and enhances comfort during long practice sessions or performances.
13-56 Gauge for Power and Expression
The 13-56 gauge set provides strong tension and full volume, making it perfect for rhythm and strumming. On the other hand, it remains flexible enough for clean bends and expressive fingerstyle techniques. Therefore, these strings suit players seeking both power and subtlety.
NY Steel Core for Strength and Tuning Stability
DAddario XT Phosphor Bronze 13-56 strings use a durable NY Steel hex core that improves break resistance and tuning stability. Consequently, the strings stay in tune longer, even under heavy playing or alternate tunings.
Professional-Quality Coated Acoustic Strings
D’Addario XTAPB1356 strings are precision-engineered and rigorously tested. Because of the XT coating and strong core, they deliver consistent tone, smooth feel, and reliable performance every set.
