Elixir Acoustic 80/20 Bronze w/ Nanoweb Coating 3-Pack - Custom Light (11-52)

Elixir's Acoustic 80/20 Bronze strings with Nanoweb coating arrive in a three-pack offering the Custom Light gauge configuration: .011 to .052. The #1 acoustic guitar string brand in the US market, Elixir applies an ultra-thin polymer coating over the entire string, including the gaps between windings, blocking gunk and corrosion before they reach the metal. This complete coverage extends tone life beyond both uncoated strings and competing coated designs, keeping the bright 80/20 bronze character intact through weeks of playing.

Custom Light gauges deliver 147 pounds of total tension across six strings, balancing playability with projection. The anti-rust plated plain steel trebles resist oxidation that deadens tone, while the Nanoweb coating on wound strings reduces finger squeak during position shifts and chord changes–critical for both live performance and studio recording. The coating's smooth surface requires less finger pressure, enhancing comfort over extended sessions. Elixir's construction maintains consistent performance from the first strum, eliminating the unpredictable break-in period of uncoated alternatives.
