Elixir ATTUNE Phosphor Bronze Acoustic Strings Light 12-53

Overview

On stage, in the studio or jamming at home, the Elixir Attune set puts phosphor bronze wrap wire on a six-string acoustic guitar. Elixir's proprietary technology protects the entire string from sweat, corrosion, humidity and rust.

Long-lasting, fresh-out-of-the-box tone is the reason to look, with a crisp, clear voice and a natural feel under the fingers. The limit is detail, as the listing gives no feel or tone comparison to other Elixir sets.

Who it's for

A regular player, gigger or studio guitarist who changes strings often will value the longer life. Players who want a heavier gauge for more volume should look at other sets.

Pros and cons

Performance notes

Phosphor bronze wire brings a clear, crisp tone, and the protective technology slows the dulling that comes from sweat, humidity and rust. A lighter gauge needs less pressure but produces less volume than heavier sets.
