Review: These strings are great, they last a lot longer than Elixirs - These strings are great, they last a lot longer than Elixirs, at least for my somewhat aggressive flatpicking style, which can be hard on the coatings, and they sound and feel closer to regular non-coated strings - so much so that it can come as a bit of a surprise. I am using these on both my Gibson songwriter and my Taylor 814ce. So far I like them better on the Gibson which I tend to flatpick more often, still not sure how I like them on the Taylor which I tend to play more fingerstyle on. They work and sound great of course, but they do sound quite different to elixirs and for some folks it may take some getting used to after years of using elixirs exclusively. Review: very nice tone. - i usually use these on my electric guitar and there great , i didn't think about ever trying to use them on acoustic but i thought id give them a try, well i first i thought they were a little bright sounding compared to adarios, they also felt a little thinner then 10"s, but the more i played them the sound seem to bring in a nice tone after the strings settled in, very nice i think im gonna run with these for awhile and see how long they hold together as far as tone, great handling, nice and smooth moving up and down the neck. id give them a true run before really jugging them but for right now i think there fantastic. ## Features - Thinnest coating ever! - Withstands hard strumming - American made ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0007Y0A72 | | Best Sellers Rank | #37,085 in Musical Instruments ( See Top 100 in Musical Instruments ) #285 in Acoustic Guitar Strings | | Brand | Cleartone | | Brand Name | Cleartone | | Coating Description | coated | | Color | Bronze | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 263 Reviews | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00786136074114 | | Instrument | Acoustic Guitar | | Item Type Name | Acoustic Guitar Strings | | Item Weight | 2.86 g | | Manufacturer | Cleartone | | Manufacturer Part Number | CL7411 | | Material Type | Stainless Steel | | Model Number | .011-.052 CUSTOM LIGHT/7411 | | String Gauge | Light | | String Material Type | Coated | | UPC | 786136074114 | | Unit Count | 1 Count | | Warranty Description | Manufacturer’s warranty can be requested from customer service. | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Cleartone - **Color:** Bronze - **Instrument:** Acoustic Guitar - **String Gauge:** Light - **String Material Type:** Coated ## Images ![Cleartone Custom-Light Gauge Coated Acoustic Guitar Strings - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61dWgrumnFL.jpg) ![Cleartone Custom-Light Gauge Coated Acoustic Guitar Strings - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81N9oI51B6L.jpg) ![Cleartone Custom-Light Gauge Coated Acoustic Guitar Strings - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61q-nd2aZPL.jpg) ![Cleartone Custom-Light Gauge Coated Acoustic Guitar Strings - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71HpwZhau8L.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: Does anyone know the total string tension in lbs?** A: Depends on the scale length of the guitar.

I am using these on both my Gibson songwriter and my Taylor 814ce.

Can't tell they're coated in feel or sound, they're fairly bassy and they're not overly bright making them a perfect match for a maple guitar. Also, did I mention that they are LOUD? Because these strings are much louder than the old strings (granted they were old, but I've never heard anywhere close to this level of volume increase with a new set).ο»Ώ Given my impressions on maple, they might not be my first choice for a rosewood Martin for example although I'm not saying not to try it either. How long they last or refrain from flaking is to be seen, but my initial impression is great! I will come back and update my review should I have any of the above later. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pt/products/2430039-cleartone-custom-light-gauge-coated-acoustic-guitar-strings](https://www.desertcart.pt/products/2430039-cleartone-custom-light-gauge-coated-acoustic-guitar-strings) --- *Product available on Desertcart Portugal* *Store origin: PT* *Last updated: 2026-09-02*
