80/20 Bronze for Vintage Tone

The 80/20 bronze wrap wire is key to the vintage tone of the EJ13 strings. Also known as brass, this alloy produces a warm, complex tone with shimmering highs and a lush bottom end. 80/20 bronze strings have been used on acoustic guitars for decades due to their unparalleled sound and longevity. These strings provide the woody, resonant tone reminiscent of classic acoustics from the early 20th century.

Custom Light Gauge for Comfortable Playability

With a custom light gauge ranging from .011 to .052, the EJ13 strings provide a familiar playing feel for most acoustic guitarists. The lighter gauge makes fretting and bending easier while still producing a bold, projecting tone. Whether you prefer a lighter touch or have smaller hands, the EJ13 custom light strings enable comfortable, effortless playability.

Enhanced Intonation and Tuning Stability

At the core of each EJ13 string is a hexagonal wire that provides enhanced stability and improves intonation. The hex core prevents the wrap wire from slipping, ensuring each string remains securely in tune during play. This design also provides a clear, consistent tone from the first fret to the sound hole. Overall, the EJ13 strings provide tuning stability and tonal clarity that lasts through hours of dynamic play.

Versatile and Long-Lasting

Equally at home in the studio or on stage, the EJ13 strings provide a versatile tone for any acoustic playing situation. Their bold, projecting sound cuts through a mix while also recording well. Built to last, these strings retain a crisp tone for weeks of regular play. For acoustic guitarists seeking a versatile, long-lasting string, the EJ13 80/20 Bronze Custom Light strings deliver on all fronts.
