DR Strings 12-54 RPL-12 Rare Phosphor Bronze Acoustic Guitar Strings
DR Strings RPL-12 Rare Phosphor Bronze Acoustic Guitar Strings – A Stronger Voice for Your Acoustic
The DR RPL-12 Rare Phosphor Bronze strings are a departure from the standard, good-quality bronze string currently available—not necessarily better, but possessing a new, different, and stronger "voice". When DR set out to produce a string with new characteristics, their goal was to redesign contemporary thinking about what phosphor bronze can do for a good acoustic guitar.
A Fatter, Louder Sound with a Deeper Bottom
Players who want a fatter and louder sound, as well as a deeper bottom—who like to hear their guitars ring out—will appreciate the Rare phosphor tone, sound, and feel. The phosphor bronze wrap wire over a hexagonal high-carbon steel core delivers a warm, bright, and balanced tone with an overall fatter and louder sound and a deep bottom end.
The Right Fit for Your Guitar
Hand-carved arch-tops, dreadnoughts, and good steel-string acoustic guitars made of rosewood, maple, and mahogany seem to benefit from a distinct improvement in tone, depth, and sustain with Rare phosphor strings. According to three-time national guitar picking champion Steve Kaufman, RARES last an unusually long time.
Light Gauge – The Versatile Standard
The Light 12-54 gauge offers the perfect balance of playability and projection, delivering the volume and power needed for both fingerstyle and aggressive strumming. The set includes:
-
.012, .016, .024, .032, .042, .054
Handcrafted American Quality
Proudly made in the USA with American materials, DR Strings are handmade in Westwood, New Jersey. Each string is precision-wound for consistent quality and exceptional performance. The hexagonal core provides excellent intonation and tuning stability, while the phosphor bronze wrap delivers the warmth, brightness, and projection that discerning players demand.
Experience the Rare phosphor tone—a new, different, and stronger voice for your acoustic guitar.
