D'Addario XSPB022 Corda de guitarra

Single XS Phosphor Bronze String for Acoustic Guitar

This single .022" phosphor bronze wound string is designed for acoustic guitar, sold individually as a replacement or for building a custom gauge set. Part of the XS Phosphor Bronze Series, it pairs a phosphor bronze wrap wire with an NY Steel hex core and the brand's proprietary Fusion Twist technology. The XS coating gives the warm, balanced phosphor bronze tone maximum life with an uncommonly smooth feel under the fingers. Compared to standard 80/20 bronze strings, the XS treatment adds enhanced break strength and tuning stability alongside a dramatically increased lifespan. This .022" gauge is commonly used as the third (G) string in light or custom-light acoustic sets.

Who It's For

The XSPB022 is the right choice for acoustic guitarists who need a single replacement string at the .022" gauge — typically the third (G) string in a light or custom-light set — without buying a full pack. It suits players who want the warm, balanced tone of phosphor bronze combined with the longer lifespan and corrosion resistance of an XS coating. The round-wound construction and ball-end fitting make it compatible with standard acoustic guitar bridges, and the NY Steel core helps the string hold tuning through temperature and humidity changes. Ideal for gigging musicians, recording sessions, or anyone building a custom gauge set tailored to their playing style. Designed, engineered, and manufactured in the USA at D'Addario's New York facility.
