Description
The EXP16 set is D’Addario’s answer to a common acoustic guitar dilemma: strings sound their best right when they’re about to wear out. By applying an ultra-thin EXP coating over their proven phosphor bronze wrap wire, D’Addario blocks the finger oils and grime that normally kill string life, extending brightness up to four times longer than uncoated strings while still delivering the warm, well-balanced voice phosphor bronze is known for.
Underneath that coating, construction hasn’t been cut any corners. Each string uses the same hex-shaped core and wrap wire found in D’Addario’s standard phosphor bronze line, plus their exclusive NY Steel plain strings, borrowed from the NYXL series, for added strength and steadier pitch during tuning and play.
This Light gauge set is the brand’s most popular configuration for acoustic guitar, prized for comfortable playability paired with rich, long-lasting tone. It’s a solid pick whether you’re restringing a favorite acoustic or stocking up for gigs.
