Elixir80/20 Bronze Acoustic Guitar Strings with NANOWEB Coating, Light (.012-.053) 2-Pack
1/3
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Elixir’s light-gauge 80/20 Bronze acoustic set comes as a two-pack for players who want spares ready for the next restring. The NANOWEB coating covers the full string, including the spaces between windings, while the plain steel strings use Anti-Rust Plating. Its 80/20 bronze wrap is described as crisp and bright with an expressive, vibrant character. The ultra-thin NANOWEB finish retains a more traditionally textured feel than Elixir’s POLYWEB coating.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Keeping a second light-gauge acoustic string set on hand between string changes.
- Acoustic players seeking 80/20 bronze strings with crisp, bright tone and a traditionally textured feel.
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Players looking for the slicker, gentler feel associated with Elixir’s POLYWEB coating.
- Players wanting the fuller-bodied, sparkling-high-end balance described for Elixir Phosphor Bronze NANOWEB strings.
