The D’Addario XS Extra Light Coated Acoustic Guitar Strings are designed for players who want exceptional tone, smooth playability, and maximum string life without sacrificing feel. Featuring D’Addario’s ultra-thin XS coating, these strings provide outstanding protection against corrosion while maintaining a natural, uncoated-string response.

Made with phosphor bronze wrap wire over a high-carbon steel core, XS strings deliver a warm, articulate acoustic tone with excellent balance across all strings. The extra light gauge makes them ideal for players who prefer easier fretting, effortless bends, and reduced finger fatigue—perfect for long playing sessions or delicate fingerstyle work.

With a coating that fully protects both the wrap wire and plain steel strings, D’Addario XS sets offer some of the longest-lasting acoustic strings available today. Whether you’re performing live, recording, or practicing at home, XS strings ensure consistent tone and tuning stability from the first strum to the last.
