Default Juststrings.com 80/20 Bronze 11-50

Just strung my X20 with these.
Shocked at the quality for the price.
Just ringy (if that is a word).
I can't put the guitar down......

Hi Twiss, I don’t own an X20, but 11-50 seems like a very light gauge to me , I’d have thought 13-56 mediums, or at least med/lights would perform better.

I was really surprised with these strings. They really are good.
It cost a bit more because I'm in Australia but they really are good.

Just Strings is a distributor.

Which brand of strings did you get?

I like 11-52 80/20 Elixirs but would like to try an 11-50 gauge

JustStrings.com does have their own "no-name" brand of strings that includes both PB and 80/20 for acoustic guitar. The actual brand is a mystery wrapped in a conundrum...though it may be possible to find out by looking for 11-50 sets of 80/20 acoustic strings that match, string by string, from among the other brands that they carry...? I've never tried them, but then I've never tried to get a poke by buying a pig either.

I have a CA. That's two CF guitars in Australia that I know of. I think I met a guy with a Rainsong once....
