The Perfect Balance Between Comfort and Projection
Often called "Custom Light," the D'Addario EJ26 strings are designed for acoustic guitarists who want to maintain substance and power on the bass strings while enjoying softer tension on the trebles. The result: more comfortable playability, easier bends, and a dynamic response that remains balanced, even on guitars with an already bright character.
Introduced by D'Addario in 1974, phosphor bronze has become a standard for those seeking a sound that is both warm and precise. The phosphor bronze winding, known for its corrosion resistance, combined with a hexagonal steel core, delivers a clear attack, great projection, and a commendable tonal lifespan for regular use.

Excellent strings that I recommend to any electro folk buyer or not, they will literally change the sound of these strings: a sound worthy of the name, rich and deep bass and crystalline highs, again thanks to Maxime and Allan for their excellent advice.

Mounted on a second guitar (Eastern & Co!) , good well-balanced sound, lack of bass compared to my main guitar (Ovation 10th Anniversary) but it certainly comes from the guitar.
Very good quality/price ratio... you have to see over time...Automatically translated

I am starting to play guitar and these are the original strings on my Fender CD100. My fingers âsurviveâ well, the sound is perfect for me and they have a good lifespan.
