Overview
Gig bags and guitar cases that need a spare for the string that breaks mid set are where this D'Addario single belongs. It is a coated phosphor bronze, round wound acoustic string on a high carbon steel core.
Buying one string instead of a full set saves a restring when a single string snaps. XT coating extends life while keeping tone close to uncoated. Its position in a set depends on your gauge choice.
Who it's for
Gigging players who keep spares and tinkerers who build their own sets. Anyone restringing the whole guitar should buy a full set.
Pros and cons
- Replace one string, not six
- Coated for longer life
- Break resistant core
- Strong tuning stability
- Single string only
- String position not stated
- Coated feel differs slightly
Performance notes
Fusion Twist and the high carbon core help the string settle and hold pitch, which matters when one new string is played beside worn ones. The coating slows corrosion so it ages more slowly than an uncoated spare.
