I worked on the development and launch of the new X-Series at D'Addario. This is a new coating material that is thinner and more durable than EXP, giving the strings an extended lifespan without affecting the natural tone or feel of the strings. We're now also able to coat all steel strings in the set, including plain steel strings. In regards to string breakage - we're using our NY Steel wire which is a stronger steel alloy, along with our Fusion Twist process which reinforces the twist making XT strings a much stronger and more durable string. Breakage can occur for many reasons that are unrelated to the string; without seeing the issue in the context of the guitars set-up, tuning, among other variables it's difficult to say why a string broke. I can tell you that I've been playing these strings for the last three years as they've been developed and I haven't broken a single string. **Q: are these strings balls or ball less ?** A: If they are for acoustic guitar they have "balls." **Q: ?To Andres re: strings breaking guitar - you used steel strings on a nylon string guitar....** A: Using steel strings on a guitar designed for nylon strings could damage the neck **Q: How do you know what size string to get??** A: Look up make and model of your guitar on the net, or call a local music shop that sells your guitar. They, in most cases, list or know what string size came on your guitar originally. Buy that gauge. The size of each string is listed on the string pack. If you do change string gauge, a local luther may have to widen out the string slots or change the nut to accomodate the new size. Hope this helps....Phillip ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ GREAT SOUND *by V***I on 26 June 2026* I got it for my classic guitar. It is 6 metal set, the sound it different from the 3 metal, 3 naylon sets I highly recommend it. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Original *by C***A on 29 July 2020* Thanks. Authentic ### ⭐ Does not last *by U***Y on 9 October 2023* Broke a string on my first night playing these. Stupidly didn't bring a spare set cause these are supposed to last. And the strings sound completely dead after that show. Don't waste your money. Rather buy Martin strings. They last longer and don't break. ## Frequently Bought Together - D'Addario Guitar Strings - XT Phosphor Bronze Coated Acoustic Guitar Strings - XTAPB1047 - Extended String Life with Natural Tone & Feel - For 6 String Guitars - 10-47 Extra Light - D'Addario Accessories Pro-Winder Guitar String Winder, Cutter, Bridge Pin Puller - All in One Guitar Tool - Black - Elixir Strings 80/20 Bronze Acoustic Guitar Strings w NANOWEB Coating, Extra Light (.010-.047) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.be/products/304660948-guitar-strings-xt-phosphor-bronze-coated-acoustic-guitar-strings-xtapb1047](https://www.desertcart.be/products/304660948-guitar-strings-xt-phosphor-bronze-coated-acoustic-guitar-strings-xtapb1047) --- *Product available on Desertcart Belgium* *Store origin: BE* *Last updated: 2026-08-13*
