Description
Medium gauge phosphor bronze strings hit differently — there’s more meat under your fingers and a lot more push coming back out of the soundboard. EJ17s run heavier tension than lights, which means they can take a real strumming or flat-picking attack without folding, rewarding you with a bolder, more resonant voice rather than a thin, choked one.
D’Addario pioneered phosphor bronze winding back in 1974, and this set is why the material stuck around. Corrosion-resistant phosphor bronze is precision-wound over a hexagonal high-carbon steel core, giving you that classic warm-but-bright balance along with intonation that stays true up and down the neck as the strings settle in.
Grabbing the 3-pack just makes sense if you’re the type who swaps strings often — no scrambling for a fresh set mid-tour, mid-session, or the night before a gig. Each set ships in D’Addario’s corrosion-resistant packaging, so the ones sitting in your case stay just as lively as the day they were made. Made in the U.S.A.
