1/5
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Built for acoustic guitarists who want a protected string set without giving up a smooth playing surface. XS uses an ultrathin coating over its wound phosphor bronze strings to guard against corrosion and buildup, with polymer treatment on the plain steels as well. D'Addario rates the set for up to 200 playing hours. High-carbon NY Steel cores and treated plain strings are intended to support strength and tuning stability through regular playing.
