D'Addario was the first company to use phosphor bronze in the manufacture of its acoustic guitar strings in 1974, and later extended its use to acoustic bass strings. Today, guitarists around the world play phosphor bronze, now considered the benchmark for acoustic guitar strings thanks to its warmth and wonderfully balanced tone. Our Phosphor Bronze acoustic bass strings are made with a phosphor bronze wrap wire precisely wound around a high-carbon steel core, delivering all the tonal versatility needed for most styles. Phosphor bronze was introduced into string making by D'Addario in 1974, and has since become synonymous with warmth, brightness and tonal balance. D'Addario Phosphor Bronze strings are wound with corrosion-resistant phosphor bronze on a carefully machined, hex-shaped, high-carbon steel core in a high-precision process. The result: bright, long-lasting tone with excellent intonation.
