D’Addario also had a hand in creating 80/20 Bronze acoustic guitar strings, a close second to Phosphor Bronze in terms of popularity. Boasting the brightest tone of any D'Addario acoustic string, this bold alloy was developed by John D'Addario Sr. and guitar maker John D'Angelico back in the 1930s. It's been revered by guitar players around the world ever since, for its remarkable depth, rich, bright harmonics, and broader depth of sound.I've written about and researched music gear for many years, while also serving as a music director at my local church, in addition to teaching guitar, bass and mentoring young musicians.
This is a non-standard set of strings that I'm currently using on my Martin OMCPA4. You might find it interesting if you'd like to try something different from the standard gauges featured in the rest of this guide.
This is an extra-light 11-50 gauge set, which is lighter than the 12-54 gauge sets that I'm used to. It has a combination of 80 copper and 20 zinc (percent) alloy windings that shape its bright voicing. It also has a hex core that come standard with many strings.
Gear Review: D'addario Xs Coated Acoustic Guitar Strings
I'm quite pleased with its smoother and lighter playing feel. I also find its quality and tone to be on par with what I'm used to, albeit with a different trebly flavor.
As the label implies, this is a bright sounding set, and while it bothered me at first, I have grown to appreciate its distinct voicing. It may not sound as full as gauge 12 sets, but I like how each string rings with clarity and definition. Chords and solo lines sound noticeably clearer. They have more fidelity, which makes practice, recording and playing solo more enjoyable
On the flip side, I notice that my plugged-in tone is thinner, and easily drowned out when playing with a band. Thankfully, I am able to shave off some of the highs by tweaking the tone settings on my Martin's preamp system. And I ended up liking the result, because I still get the benefit of clarity and focused tone, with less of the unwanted high frequency zing. And since it doesn't have much bass, it also interferes less with the bassist. Still, the bright tonality of this set is more of an acquired taste, especially for those like me who are used to warmer sounding acoustics.

Compared to the 12's that I'm used to, the GHS BB20X is noticeably easier to play. Techniques like bending, sliding, hammer-on and pull-offs are easier to do, even more so when playing simple chords and single line notes. This relaxed playing feel is the main reason why I will most probably continue using this set on my Martin. Due to its lighter playing feel, strumming, plucking and fretting too hard on the strings may cause unwanted buzzing. Sometimes even intonation issues. To avoid these, I had to be more conscious of my playing intensity and avoid going all out.
In my experience, the GHS BB20X still sounds crisp and fresh after over 3 weeks of use, and this is quite a feat given that this is a non-coated set.
Thanks to the pro setup by my trusted luthier, I never had intonation and tuning stability issues. But if you're inexperienced at string installation and setup, then it is normal to encounter tuning issues. Even more so right after installation, when strings have not yet stretched enough. As they get more corroded, the strings will have intonation problems, especially at the higher
