The D'Addario PB053 is a single .053 gauge phosphor bronze wound acoustic guitar string — handy to have around when you snap a string mid-session or want to dial in a custom gauge combination that works for your playing style and tuning preferences.
The construction follows the same formula as D'Addario's best-selling Phosphor Bronze Wound string series: corrosion-resistant phosphor bronze wrap wire wound over a hexagonally shaped, high-carbon steel core. That hex core helps keep the winding secure and contributes to consistent intonation. D'Addario pioneered the use of phosphor bronze in acoustic guitar strings back in 1974, and the material remains a go-to choice for acoustic players for its balance of warmth and brightness across the frequency range.
All D'Addario strings are manufactured in the USA using proprietary, digitally controlled machinery, and the packaging is designed to protect against corrosion until you're ready to string up.
