The Character of 80/20 Bronze: Attack and Projection Serving Acoustic Playing
The D'Addario BW045 belongs to the family of acoustic strings made from 80/20 bronze (often called brass), a historic alloy chosen since the 1930s for its clear response. The result: a clean attack, a very present high end, and projection that highlights both pick and fingerpicking playing styles, with a "traditional" tonal identity.
A Reliable Replacement String for Demanding Musicians
Whether you are replacing a broken string or building a custom gauge set, this single .045 string allows you to keep your acoustic guitar perfectly playable without compromising tonal balance. The 80/20 bronze winding delivers that characteristic brightness while maintaining deep lows, particularly useful for supporting rhythm and dynamics.
