D'Addario Acoustic Guitar Strings XS Acoustic Strings XT Acoustic Phosphor bronze 80/20 Bronze Flat Tops Silk & Steel Nickel Bronze Greg Koch Mike Dawes Seiji Igusa Tom Bukovac "I will say that I love these strings. They sound great, feel great and take a pummeling for a long time and maintain both a great tone and feel" "XS strings are perfect for the studio - super smooth while reducing finger noise without sacrificing tone. I can't wait to take them on tour!" “XS sounds & feels better than any coated string I’ve played. After playing for two weeks straight, I didn’t notice any change from the day I put them on."

Review: If you wan't to sound like a guitar god, buy these strings! - I have used many, many different brands of strings over the years and I really feel as though I have found the 'Holy Grail' with these ones. I believe Taylor put them on all of their new guitars as standard now, and I can completely understand why. They last FOR AGES! I play the life out of my guitar and I haven't seen any tarnishing at all. They take no time at all to 'bed in' and stay in tune well. Very easy strings to play, not too hard on the ol' fingers. Value for money as well due to the quality being so high. I genuinely believe if you fitted these to a mediocre or low end guitar, you would improve the sound quality drastically. They have such good tone and really bring my guitar to life. Review: Pro standard. Market leader for a reason! - D'Addario strings have been my "go to" as since late 70s. Their acoustic guitar strings have been under my fingers on a variety of guitars mid range to premium. Always sound great. I did wander to other brands occasionally (usually guitar brands own) but these are my favourites. They "stretch" and stabilise quicksmart.
