The set comprises twelve strings across six courses: the top two courses (high E and B) are paired in unison, each pair using two plain steel strings of the same gauge. The lower four courses (G, D, A, low E) each pair a standard gauge string with a lighter octave string, producing the shimmering interval that gives the 12-string its characteristic sound. The G and D octave strings are plain steel; the A and low E octave strings are wound.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eThe 80\/20 bronze alloy wrap wire — 80% copper, 20% zinc — produces the bright, bell-like acoustic tone the format is known for. A coating on each wound string slows the corrosion and tonal deterioration caused by hand contact, which matters more on a 12-string set than a 6-string one given the increased total string surface area in contact with the playing hand. The American hexagonal steel core provides consistent intonation and dimensional stability across all twelve strings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5 data-start=\"92\" data-end=\"149\"\u003eKEY FEATURES: Ibanez IACS12C Coated 80\/20 Bronze 12-String Acoustic Guitar Strings — Light, .010-.047\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cul data-start=\"151\" data-end=\"1387\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpecifically Wound For 12-String Guitar:\u003c\/strong\u003e Correct pairing, gauges, and course layout throughout.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e80\/20 Bronze Wound, Coated:\u003c\/strong\u003e Bright chiming tone with extended string life.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLight Gauge:\u003c\/strong\u003e Manageable total tension for 12-string instruments.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAmerican Hexagonal Steel Core:\u003c\/strong\u003e Consistent intonation and tuning stability.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUnison Top Two Courses:\u003c\/strong\u003e Matching gauges on high E and B pairs.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOctave Lower Four Courses:\u003c\/strong\u003e Plain octave on G and D; wound octave on A and low E.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSingle Set of 12 Strings.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Ibanez","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57734095929679,"sku":"IACS12C","price":9.8,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0891\/3344\/9551\/files\/718fd9mGkNL._AC_SL1500.jpg?v=1779208395","url":"https:\/\/www.audiodirect.co.uk\/products\/ibanez-iacs12c-80-20-bronze-12-string-acoustic-guitar-strings-light-010-047","provider":"Audio Direct","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
