## Overview

D'Addario EJ16 Phosphor Bronze acoustic guitar strings are precision wound with corrosion-resistant phosphor bronze over a high-carbon steel core, delivering a warm, balanced tone ideal for all musical styles. Made in the USA and favored worldwide since the 1970s, these light gauge (12-53) strings combine durability, playability, and iconic sound, now with a rewards program for loyal players.

## Description

D'Addario was the first to use Phosphor Bronze in acoustic guitar strings back in 1974. Today, Phosphor Bronze is played throughout the world and considered to be the standard in acoustic strings, thanks to its beautiful sonic balance and tonal warmth. Our pioneering Phosphor Bronze acoustic guitar strings are precision wound with phosphor bronze wrap wire over a high-carbon steel core, providing tonal versatility suitable for all acoustic styles and musical genres.

Review: Ideal hybrid strings - These strings sound amazing, very bright and full sounding. Much more bendable and playable than the 13s. Perfect balance for both finger style and strumming. They feel premium and hold up well for months of playing. They were pretty easy to install, just make sure you have a good pair of wire cutters.
Review: Bright, Balanced, and Comfortable Strings! - I’ve been using D’Addario EJ15 Phosphor Bronze strings for my acoustic guitar, and they never disappoint. The light gauge (10–47) makes them very easy on the fingers, perfect for beginners or anyone who enjoys smooth playability. The tone is bright yet warm, with excellent clarity for fingerpicking and strumming. They also hold tuning really well and last longer than most other strings I’ve tried. After a few weeks of daily playing, they still sound fresh and lively. If you want a reliable set of strings with consistent quality, this 3-pack is a fantastic value. Highly recommended!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Absolutely wonderful set of strings!
*by P***J on October 8, 2025*

These strings are wonderful! They are extremely durable out of the box, and take little stretching to make sure they tune all the way up. I've had no worries with restringing about them popping in my eyes which makes me feel a lot better about them. They sound amazing too! They are bright and lovely, with little buzz! (I have an older Takamine that tends to have issues with string buzz due to the wearing action, but these sound lovely!) They feel great overall and aren't as rough as other strings I've had in the past. Overall a great product and couldn't recommend more!
