Phosphor Bronze for a Distinctive Acoustic Voice

D'Addario pioneered the use of phosphor bronze in acoustic guitar strings. The phosphor bronze alloy produces a warm, balanced tone with shimmering highs and a focused midrange. Compared to 80/20 bronze, phosphor bronze has an additional warmth and richness. For vintage acoustic tones, the EJ26 strings are a perfect fit. The phosphor bronze wrap wire also has superior corrosion resistance for longer lasting tone and freshness.

Familiar Tension and Feel

With a .011–.052 gauge, the EJ26 strings have a tension most acoustic guitarists will instantly recognize. The Custom Light gauge provides balanced tension for traditional playing techniques and allows the natural resonance of the top to shine through. Whether you prefer light fingerpicking or medium strumming, the EJ26 strings have a familiar and versatile feel.

Hex Core for Stability and Durability

At the heart of the EJ26 strings is D'Addario's hex core wire. The combination steel hex core provides unparalleled strength and stability under tension. The hex core means fewer string breaks, greater tuning stability, and longer lasting tone. For performing guitarists and recording artists, the enhanced reliability of hex core wire means less time changing strings and more time crafting your sound.
