    • Great for acoustic and acoustic hybrid guitars.
Size: Custom Light, 11-52 Style: 3-Pack
I like these strings on my fender acoustasonic strat and tele. They have a nice acoustic sound without and finger scratching sounds. Great for sliding and playing leads on my hybrid guitar.

    • Martin D18 (Drop D Amazingness)
Size: Light, 12-53 Style: 1-Pack
Been on a search for the sound I want out of my Martin. Tried Earthwood Mediums, Martin Retros, Elixr, Idk what all else. These, so far, are the brightest and loudest right after install and tuning. They make my Martin sound more like a Taylor. By that I mean crisp and bright and full with good strong Mids and crisp highs… but almost non existent lows. My Taylor actually has more low end than these. You have the strings down there to make an effective note, but it’s just filler with no emphasis on a bass note once so ever.. It’s not a bad thing though. If your like me and have several good guitars, you want some variation between them. These strings on this guitar shine with a strumming song that you want a Strong and Loud mid and crisp highs. Here is the caveat to that.. drop D. Now you have the cleanest and nicest Bass and mids and highs that can handle it. For playing anything in Drop D, this is your set up. I love it. Think Neil Young. Think Chris Thomas King and Dave Matthews. This is for you. Usually in drop d, the bass is overwhelming, which is fine, but I have never heard a balanced guitar in drop d. It is glorious. Explore this with DADGAD, DADGBE, and DADFAD tuning. I think standard tuning is a bit too bright. But it’s okay on some songs. I have not tried standard tuning a step down, I have other guitars set up for that. This is my new drop D style set up. Highly recommend. ... show more

    • Great backup strings
Size: Light, 12-53 Style: 3-Pack
My husband needed new strings for his guitar. Yes, we could have gone to any Guitar Center to buy them. We didn't because clearly, we didn't wanna drive. These arrived in a timely fashion without us needing to leave the house. My husband was happy to have more on hand for future repair. Some context is needed for these strings though. First, be sure that if you're gonna change your guitar strings yourself, you know what you're doing. Do not just buy these on a whim without first knowing what to do. Second, these are fairly easy to handle. When my husband changed his strings, it didn't take him long to do. Now, these strings are durable and sound wonderful. At the price you're paying, you cannot go wrong! The sound is crisp and clean once fresh strings are on. Great buy overall! ... show more

    • Pretty much found my acoustic guitar string...
Size: Custom Light, 11-52 Style: 1-Pack
I have used D'Addario light gauge phosphor bronze strings often on my acoustics, but recently downsized to the custom light gauge .11-.52. I prefer this gauge for finger picking on my Guild F30R, but will string these on my D25BR too. As I get older, my finger pads just need a break, and while I have played medium and standard light sets of all sorts of brands of strings over the years, .11-.52 is where I find myself today. Easy to play, great tone, and the PB alloy makes them last a bit longer than 80/20. And if I can get 2 months out of the EJ26s, well at $9 a pop, that is a great value! I recommend this set for beginners as well, a great place to start, and the gauge will not deter you from playing. ... show more
