Expert opinion

I recently had the pleasure of trying out the Elixir 80/20 Bronze Acoustic Guitar Strings with NANOWEB Coating. As a professional guitarist, I have tried many different strings and this one is definitely up there with the best of them.

The strings come in a light gauge of .012 .053 and are constructed with 80/20 80 copper, 20 zinc bronze wrap wire that produces a crisp, bright tone with an expressive and vibrant presence. The strings are also coated with a NANOWEB Coating which provides an ultra thin finish and a more traditionally textured, uncoated feel. This coating also helps protect against common corrosion and extends the life of the strings longer than other brands coated or uncoated strings.

The sound quality of these strings is excellent. They have great intonation and sustain with rich tone that really rings out when you play. I found they stayed in tune very well and had solid clarity across all the notes. The strings also felt very comfortable to play on as they weren t too stiff or too loose.

The NANOWEB Coating makes these strings very durable as well. I ve been playing mine for weeks now and they still look like new no rust or discoloration whatsoever! The coating also helps keep your hands clean while playing as it reduces finger squeaks that can be caused by sweat or oils from your skin.

These strings are perfect for beginners who want to get a good sound out of their guitar without spending too much money on high end models. The price point is great considering how long they last you won t have to replace them nearly as often as other brands strings!

Overall, I would highly recommend the Elixir 80/20 Bronze Acoustic Guitar Strings with NANOWEB Coating to anyone looking for great sounding strings at an affordable price point that will last a long time without needing to be replaced frequently. They re perfect for beginners as well as experienced players looking to add some extra brightness to their sound!
