D'Addario's most popular acoustic set, EJ16 delivers the ideal balance of volume, projection and comfortable playability.

Phosphor Bronze was introduced to string making by D'Addario in 1974 and has become synonymous with warm, bright, and well balanced acoustic tone.  D'Addario Phosphor Bronze strings are precision wound with corrosion resistant phosphor bronze onto a carefully drawn, hexagonally shaped, high carbon steel core.  The result is long lasting, bright sounding tone with excellent intonation. Also available in individual sets, 3 packs, and 10 packs.          

  • Bulk shop packaging is ideal for workbenches or anywhere bulk packaged strings are needed
  • D'Addario's most popular acoustic guitar string set, known for its superb, long-lasting tone and comfortable playability

  • String Gauges: Plain Steel .012, .016, Phosphor Bronze Wound .024, .032, .042, .053

In 1974, D'Addario pioneered the use of phosphor bronze wire for the winding of acoustic guitar strings. D'Addario phosphor bronze strings were an instant and enduring success. A more costly alloy, phosphor bronze was widely known as a durable, long-lasting material used in machine bushings and bearings. After months of searching, a wire company was located that agreed to make sample wires for testing on music strings. The results made history. D'Addario phosphor bronze strings are bright sounding and retain their brilliance longer than other bronze and brass alloys. EJ16s are used by many notable musicians including Al DiMeola, Liz Phair and Edwin McCain.

 

*IMPORTANT - These are not individually packaged sets. They are convenient bulk packs (25 strings each) of individual gauges. To make up a set, remove one string from each of the bulk compartments. They are intended for the needs of repair shops but are great for the individual player as well.
