Elixir's Nanoweb Phosphor Bronze strings are one of the most popular acoustic string sets out there — and for good reason. The Custom Light (.011–.052) gauge sits right between extra light and standard light, giving you a comfortable feel without giving up much in volume or projection. These are a solid choice whether you're a fingerpicker who wants a little more presence or a strummer who finds standard lights a bit stiff.
What sets these apart from a regular phosphor bronze string is Elixir's NANOWEB coating. Rather than just coating the outer surface, the ultra-thin polymer wraps the entire string — filling in the gaps between the windings where debris, sweat, and skin oils normally collect. The plain steel strings also carry anti-rust plating, protecting the full set from corrosion. The result is a string that holds onto its tone noticeably longer than uncoated strings, and even longer than most other coated brands. The thin Nanoweb coating also reduces finger squeak, which is a nice bonus for recording or quieter playing environments.
