The Elixir 11052 Nanoweb 80/20 Bronze is a set of acoustic guitar strings made by Elixir Strings. The "80/20 Bronze" refers to the material used for the wound strings, which is a blend of 80% copper and 20% zinc. Nanoweb is a patented coating applied to the strings that help to protect against corrosion and provide a longer lifespan for the strings, while also maintaining a bright, clear tone. These strings are popular among acoustic guitar players for their combination of longevity and tone.
Elixir's 80/20 Bronze strings present a smoother, mellower tone than Phosphor Bronze acoustic strings. They tend to assume a warmer glowing tone, and the Polyweb™ coating further subdues their high end, resulting in a rich, full-bodied tone.
