When the guitars and basses of the stars are fitted with new strings behind the scenes, the D'Addario brand plays a not insignificant role. Artists such as Sheryl Crow, Lenny Kravitz, Pat Metheny and many others from all musical genres rely on the products of the American manufacturer with Italian roots. What began over two hundred years ago in Salle, Italy, has grown over the years into a high-tech company that is considered one of the most innovative and productive in the entire musical instrument industry. Research and development in the company's own laboratories continues to produce revolutionary new products, and existing products are constantly being improved. Even tiny details such as the shape of the edges of the ball ends are taken seriously: after all, they should not cut into the wood of the bridge or top.Another factor in the company's position on the world market is the high quality of its materials and production. Every raw material is meticulously checked at least three times. During and after production, laser-controlled diagnostic computers ensure that extremely tight tolerances are maintained. All tools and machines used in string production are developed by D'Addario engineers and manufactured in our own workshops - the best prerequisite for the production of consistent quality at the highest level. Even the packaging material is processed in-house and printed in the company's own print shop. Against this background, D'Addario is able to realise ideas very quickly and is always at the cutting edge and usually even a good deal ahead.Today, the brand is at home in over 100 countries around the world and many instruments leave the factory fitted with D'Addario strings. Every day, more than 300,000 strings are produced in the factory in Farmingdale in the US state of New York, and in the USA alone, musicians can find their new strings with the world-famous logo in over 5,400 shops.

The 800 series was Hannabach'sfirst breakthrough in the production of strings forconcert guitars.This has led to our focus on the further development and production of strings for this instrument. 800 basses are spun with silver-coated copper wire around a nylon multifilament and sound brilliant but not obtrusive and deliver decent basses. The treble strings, made of high-tensile nylon, offer the typical slightly damped sound of a nylon string. Today, the 800 series represents the upper entry level of Hannabach products.Made for instruments with a scale length of 65 cm.

The 80/20 Bronze are our most brilliant acoustic guitar strings, producing an unrivalled clear tone. Thanks to our revolutionary XS coating, our powerful, bright 80/20 strings last particularly long and offer an unusually smooth playing feel. The strings consist of a NY Steel core and 80/20 Bronze winding wire. Thanks to Fusion Twist technology, they not only have a significantly longer service life but also unrivalled tensile strength and tuning stability compared to standard 80/20 strings. This set of strings in the 11-52 Custom Light gauge produces slightly more volume and projection than the Extra Light strings, but is still easy to play.The XS series breathes new life into coated strings. With the ultra-thin film coating on each wound string and the unique polymer treatment of the solid steel strings, the XS offer our highest level of protection for maximum durability with an exceptionally smooth feel. XS is made with a NY Steel core - steel from New York - with a high carbon content and an all-steel winding. And our exclusive Fusion Twist technology offers unrivalled tensile strength and tuning stability. XS is the most innovative coated string ever developed.
The story behind the stringsTaylor Guitars worked with Elixir Strings on a special set of strings that would give the Grand Concert and Grand Auditorium guitars more powerfulhighs and fuller basses.One criterion for a high-quality guitar is its ability to sound like one and the same instrument from the lowest to the highest note. From Bob Taylor's point of view, Andy Powers has a natural instinct to realise this in a guitar, as demonstrated by the balanced character of the Grand Orchestra note for note. The type and gauge of a guitar can play an important role in bringing this out.First it was the 800s, where Andy switched from Elixir Acoustic 80/20 Bronze strings with NANOWEB® coating, which he had been using for years, to Elixir Acoustic Phosphor Bronze strings with NANOWEB® coating."The Phosphor Bronze strings give the highs a silky, intense sheen and overall more fullness and warmth," he adds.Andy and the rest of the product development team were so impressed with them that they made the decision to install Phosphor Bronze strings on all Taylor acoustic guitars in 2014.Creating a balanced toneOne of the qualities Bob Taylor admires about Andy's approach is his ability to create a balanced tone across the entire guitar."The highest notes you can play at the 12th fret on the high strings are just as loud and full as the lowest," Bob explains. "It sounds like a single guitar, from one end to the other. That can be difficult to realise, often the first five frets sound like one guitar, the next four like another, and four frets further on like a third. But Andy's guitars sound like one and the same instrument, like a piano.With the Nanoweb strings, Elixir is the only string brand that uses a very thin coating to protect the string from dirt and thus from corrosion. The strings impress with their consistent performance and tone. In addition, the playing noise is reduced to a minimum - ideal for stage and studio.
Albert Augustine emigrated from Denmark to the USA in 1926. He settled in New York as an instrument maker and experimented with the various newly invented plastics. in 1946, with the support of the world-famous Andres Segovia, he was able to present the world's first nylon string, which has since gone on to conquer the entire globe. Made in New York. USA.The best known sets (CLASSIC: black, red and blue) have identical treble strings in normal tension, the 3 sets differ in the different tensions of the wound bass strings (black=light/normal, red=medium, blue=high) This logic is continued in all subsequent series.
