Elixir Phosphor Bronze Nanoweb Light-Medium 12 - 56 Acoustic Strings

For the player who refuses to compromise between finesse and fullness, Elixir’s Phosphor Bronze Nanoweb Light-Medium strings offer the perfect middle ground. Sitting comfortably between light and medium gauges, these strings give you the delicate expressiveness of a .012 high E with the added oomph of a .056 low E—ideal for strummers, pickers, and hybrid-style players who want it all in one set.

Crafted with phosphor bronze wrap wire, these strings deliver a warm, rounded tone with just the right touch of sparkle. Whether you’re coaxing mellow folk melodies or digging in for bold, dynamic rhythm work, this set responds with rich tonal complexity and a satisfying acoustic depth. It’s the kind of sound that fills a room without overpowering it.

And of course, what really sets them apart is Elixir’s renowned Nanoweb coating—a barely-there barrier that protects the strings from corrosion, finger grime, and the slow fade of brightness over time. These strings last for weeks (sometimes months), holding their tone long after uncoated sets have gone dull and tired. The feel is smooth and natural, with none of the squeaky slipperiness you might expect from coated strings.

At Musicmaker, we’ve seen countless players make the switch to these for their consistency alone. Add in the tonal warmth, excellent tuning stability, and balanced playability, and it’s no wonder this set has become a mainstay for gigging musicians, session players, and weekend warriors alike.
