Extra Light Gauge Designed for Comfortable Playing Without Sacrificing Projection
The Ernie Ball Paradigm Phosphor Bronze 2080 Extra Light 10-50 strings are aimed at acoustic guitarists seeking a soft touch, good responsiveness, and the natural brightness typical of phosphor bronze. Ideal for fingerstyle playing, dynamic rhythms, or long sessions, they offer a smooth feel while maintaining a musical balance between clarity, warmth, and definition.
From the Paradigm range, they focus on durability : the Paradigm winding uses an exclusive plasma process that reduces defects and improves corrosion resistance. The Everlast nanotechnology is applied during winding, altering the strings' reaction to moisture to preserve your attack and intonation longer. Ernie Ball also highlights a 90-day warranty against breakage and corrosion (according to brand conditions).
