D'Addario Acoustic Guitar Strings - 80/20 Bronze - For 6 String Guitars - Deep, Bright, Projecting Tone - Deep, Bright, Projecting Tone - EJ13 - Custom Light, 11-52

Just acquired a 2007 Epiphone EJ200, and to re-string it I used Ernie Ball Earthwood 11-52's...( I usually use Martin acoustic.) The Earthwood's were just bland, and the wound G string almost immediately had fret bumps that felt awful...like it needed to be re-strung only after an hour of playing. EB, IMHO hasn't really done well lately. So, being I went with the D'Addario NYXL's on my electric, which are awesome, I chose these for my Epiphone, and immediately they felt and sounded better...like night and day. Full rich sound, with big booming bottom, clean and present mids, and nice chimey, but not ear piercing high's. The G strings actually a 32g compared to the Earthwood's 30g, but it bends so much more effortlessly, and I like to be able to bend my acoustic strings when needed...They also feel great under my fingers too. I think I originally stopped using D'Addario due to price when I was touring, and the EB's saved me a few bucks. I thought the EB's were ok, but the D'Addario's are simply far superior, and I won't be going back, regardless of price. Not knockin' EB, as to each their own, but these really are great strings in both electric, and acoustic. 😎👍

Why did you pick this product vs others?:Rebuilding an Epiphone Dove. D'Addario strings are all I use. Playability:Depending on what and how you play. D'Addario strings are the best. From 6 string to 12 string guitars.

These are very nice strings and they are a great deal. Now, I just put them on, but my initial reaction is that these are very, very nice!

String quality and tone are nice. These are usually just my go to strings for my acoustic.

It’s great stings if you want a light feeling when playing, but it also sounds light so it might sound weird at first, it tunes good after a couple times it will adjust itself, they are durable, the speed is great from playing to installing and even tuning, and they are great reach in length. Overall if you want lighter sounding strings these are your go too

Bought for my brother. He loved them

I normally exclusively play Elixir strings because they last so much longer than uncoated strings, however I recently purchased a new Yamaha FS830 that had a brand new set of these on it, and I liked them so much I decided to buy another set of these and see how I like them long term. I don't know how much of the guitar's clarity and articulation is down to the rosewood body and how much is the strings, but I see no reason to mess with a winning formula.

These are great acoustic guitar strings. I use them on all my guitars. I like the combination of brightness and shimmer they give and I find they last a long time if I clean them with Dunlop Ultraglide 65 after playing.
