D'Addario EJ Phosphor Bronze Acoustic Guitar Strings - (14-59) Heavy

Phosphor Bronze Acoustic Guitar Strings - (14-59) Heavy Gauge

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.

Good for drop tunings, this 14-59 Heavy gauge set is the heaviest acoustic gauge we offer, providing the most tension and resistance, with the boldest, most resonant tone.

The Original String

Pioneered in 1974 and still revered today, Phosphor Bronze has become synonymous with warm, 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.

Hex Core Construction

Precision drawn hexagonal core was pioneered by D’Addario.

This innovation allows the wrap wire to grip the core for superior dimensional stability, enhanced durability, and precise intonation.

String Winding Technology

String winding machines are designed and built by D’Addario’s engineering team, guaranteeing a production range of 500,000 to 700,000 strings per day.

Digitally controlled string winding machines ensure productivity, accuracy and consistency.
