About PRS Classic Acoustic Strings 80/20

PRS Classic Acoustic Strings use an 80/20 bronze wrap on the wound strings. 80/20 bronze, an alloy of roughly 80 percent copper and 20 percent zinc, is a traditional material for acoustic strings and is generally associated with a bright, clear tone.

Custom Light .011 to .052: what it means for playing

The Custom Light set runs from .011 to .052. The slightly lighter gauges reduce string tension compared with a .012 set, which many players find easier for bending and longer playing sessions.

If you want a little more comfort under the fingers without moving to a very thin set, a Custom Light gauge is a sensible place to start. Fresh strings also bring back clarity and sustain, so changing them regularly is one of the simplest ways to improve how an acoustic guitar sounds.
