Product Description
D’Addario EJ11 80/20 Bronze Regular Light strings give your acoustic a bold, bright and percussive voice that cuts through any mix. Using a high carbon steel hex core with an 80/20 Bronze wrap, this classic 12-53 set offers a superb balance of playing comfort, tuning stability and projection, making it ideal as an everyday workhorse set for strummers and fingerstyle players alike.
Originally developed in the 1930s by John D’Addario Sr. and renowned luthier John D’Angelico, 80/20 Bronze remains D’Addario’s brightest acoustic formula. EJ11s deliver that signature shimmering top end and crisp attack, along with enough depth and body to keep chords sounding full and articulate. If you want your acoustic to sound lively, present and inspiring every time you pick it up, EJ11s are a superb choice.
Classic Bright 80/20 Bronze Tone
With their 80 percent copper and 20 percent zinc wrap wire, EJ11 strings provide a loud, brilliant and percussive sound that really brings out the sparkle in your acoustic. Expect clear, chiming highs and rich harmonics that help arpeggios, flatpicked lines and open chords ring out with definition and character.
Hex Core Precision and Stability
D’Addario’s hexagonal high carbon steel core ensures consistent contact with the wrap wire, giving EJ11 strings excellent intonation and reliable tuning stability. The result is a responsive feel under the fingers, with a solid, confident pitch that holds up well through long practice sessions and regular gigs.
Popular Regular Light 12-53 Gauge
The 12-53 Regular Light gauge is D’Addario’s most popular acoustic set, offering a comfortable balance between playability and tone. It is light enough for easy fretting and expressive bends, yet still substantial enough to drive the top of the guitar for a full, dynamic acoustic sound.
Uncoated, Natural Playing Feel
As an uncoated set, EJ11 strings deliver a direct, natural feel with immediate response and clarity. There is nothing between your fingers and the string windings, so every nuance of your playing comes through, from delicate fingerstyle passages to hard strumming.
Features
- Bright 80/20 Bronze Sound - The 80/20 Bronze wrap wire produces a bold, sparkling tone with strong presence and crisp attack, helping your acoustic parts stand out whether you are playing solo or in a band.
- Stable Hex Core Construction - A hexagonal high carbon steel core delivers reliable intonation and tuning stability, so your guitar stays in tune longer and responds consistently across the entire fretboard.
- Versatile 12-53 Regular Light Gauge - This popular gauge balances comfortable playability with a full, resonant sound, making it a great all round choice for strumming, picking and fingerstyle.
- Uncoated, Natural Feel - The uncoated round wound construction offers a familiar, organic feel under the fingers and a clear, immediate tone that suits a wide range of acoustic styles.
