A set designed for a "bright" and expressive acoustic sound
The Earthwood 80/20 Bronze strings are designed for acoustic guitarists seeking an open, bright, and dynamic sound. Thanks to their bronze alloy wire (80 percent copper and 20 percent zinc) wrapped around a hexagonal core, they offer excellent note-to-note definition while maintaining a crisp and responsive playing feel. The gauge ending at 46 is particularly suitable for musicians who want a solid low end, good chord hold, and a strong presence in accompaniment.
