Description
Twelve-string guitars live or die on string quality, and the EJ38 set is why D’Addario stays the default choice for players who restring often. These Phosphor Bronze strings pair a hexagonally shaped, high-carbon steel core with precision-wound corrosion-resistant phosphor bronze, giving you that instant snap and shimmer a dead set just can’t produce anymore.
The hex core is the real secret here — it bites into the outer wrap for a tighter bond, so tuning stability holds up string to string across all twelve strings, not just the octave pairs. Color-coded ball ends make restringing faster and cut down on guessing which string goes where mid-change.
Phosphor bronze (92% copper, 8% tin with phosphorous) delivers that warm-but-bright, well-balanced tone acoustic players chase, and D’Addario’s been refining this alloy since introducing it back in 1974. Round wound construction keeps the feel familiar under your fingers — textured, grippy, exactly what most players expect from a fresh set.

Grab a few sets — 12-strings eat through fresh tone fast, and you’ll want a backup ready the moment this one starts sounding tired.
