Product Description
D'Addario Phopshor Bronze Acoustic Guitar strings are acclaimed worldwide for their great, long-lasting tone. Phosphor Bronze was introduced to string making by D'Addario in 1974 and has become synonymous with warm acoustic tone.   D'addario pays more to have their ball ends precision turned from solid brass stock. The edges have radii that prevent the ball end from cutting into wooden bridges or guitar tops. Each string is twisted to perfection right down to the three neatly wrapped "lock twists." And those lock twists help keep their plain steel strings from unraveling or breaking prematurely. Each and every spool of precision drawn high carbon steel wire D'addario uses goes through three quality control tests before it becomes a set of D'addario strings. Pioneering innovative string design has been a D'Addario family tradition for nine generations. Most guitar players don't realize that the inner core wire in ALL D'Addario steel strings is made from carefully drawn, hexagonally shaped, high carbon steel wire. The six "edges" of the core wire bite into the softer wrap wire, securing it all along its length.   The EJ16- 3D includes 3 sets of EJ16 gauges 12-53 in an Environmental Package.   Gauges: .012; .016; .024; .032; .042; .053

Great Strings!! Wonderful warm, full sound, yet still maintains enough brightness for finger picking.

These strings from D'Addario are a personal favorite of mine. I love the EJ16 light gauge for their size and ease of use. I think the light gauge is a nice size that won't hurt your fingers, or put undue stress on your guitar. Not only that, but they sound great. Not too big or not too small! I have plenty of volume and drive for bluegrass. I love how they color code their strings on the "ball ends". To me this makes it much easier when changing strings. You don't have to worry about mixing up your strings. I've also had no problem with the fit; unlike some brands. Give these a try. I think you'll be satisfied.

I'm no pro, but these strings sound phenomenal compared to the stock strings that came with my Ibanez guitar. I have already recommended these and would do it again in a heartbeat


5 out of 5 stars Better Price than the Stores, Just as Convenient   August 28, 2010

I ordered these strings because i was sick and tired of the cheap strings at my local guitar shop. For the same price, I figured, I might as well try a trusted well-known brand like Dadario for the same price, and see what happens. With virtually immediate arrival, and the incomparable tone and durability of the best strings out there, I was not disappointed.
