Description
If you’re the type who snaps strings mid-song or just refuses to play on dead ones, Paradigm 2080 gives you a reason to stop dreading your next set. Ernie Ball built these Extra Light phosphor bronze strings (.010-.014-.020-.028-.040-.050) around ultra-high strength steel in both the wound and plain strings, so you get real tensile and fatigue strength where it counts – under bends, hard strumming, and constant retuning. They lock into pitch fast and shrug off the stress that kills ordinary sets early.
What sets Paradigm apart is what’s happening under the hood: plasma enhanced wrap wire paired with Ernie Ball’s Everlast nano-treatment. Together they fight off corrosion, sweat, and the grime buildup that dulls tone over time – without coating the string in a way that changes how it feels under your fingers. No flaking, no rubbery texture, just phosphor bronze doing what phosphor bronze does best, for longer than you’d expect.
And Ernie Ball backs it up: break or rust within 90 days and they’ll replace the set. That’s a serious statement about durability from a company that’s been shaping guitar tone since 1962.

Load a set on, retune, and hear the difference between a string that’s alive and one that’s just hanging on.
