If you play a 12-string acoustic, you know how quickly strings can go dull — you're dealing with double the strings and double the oil, sweat, and gunk buildup. Elixir's 11152 Nanoweb 80/20 Bronze set is built specifically for 12-string guitars, and the whole point is keeping that bright, open 12-string sound going longer between changes.
The wrap wire is 80/20 bronze — 80% copper and 20% zinc — which gives you a bright, focused tone with a clear mid-range presence. The NANOWEB coating is Elixir's ultra-thin polymer layer that protects not just the outer surface of the string but also the gaps between the windings, where debris typically builds up and kills tone. Plain steel strings get Anti-Rust Plating for consistent life across the whole set. The coating is thin enough that the strings still feel like traditional strings under your fingers, without the tacky or slick feel of heavier coatings.
