D'Addario was the first to use Phosphor Bronze in acoustic guitar strings back in 1974, and today it's played all over the world and considered the standard in acoustic strings — thanks to its beautiful sonic balance and tonal warmth. The EJ16 set is precision wound with phosphor bronze wrap wire over a hexagonal high-carbon steel core, giving you tonal versatility that suits every acoustic style and musical genre.

At 12-53, Light gauge is D'Addario's most popular acoustic gauge, striking a nice balance of playability and tone. Round wound and uncoated, EJ16 delivers the tried-and-true D'Addario acoustic voice with nothing between your fingers and the string.

This 3-pack saves you 16% versus buying individual sets, so there's always a fresh set waiting in the case. Each set comes in a recyclable VCI bag with a code you can register to earn Players Circle points, and all D'Addario Phosphor Bronze strings are made in the USA, drawn to exacting specifications at the company's New York production facility.
