Review: Fantastic Acoustic Guitar Strings with Smooth, Broken-In Feel - recently tried the Ernie Ball Earthwood Light 80/20 Bronze Acoustic Guitar Strings (11-52 gauge), and I'm thoroughly impressed! What sets these strings apart is their unique "pre-broken-in" feel - they don't have that harsh, bright sound typical of brand new strings. The tone is exceptional - crisp yet warm, with a rich sound that works perfectly for various playing styles. They provide great volume and tuning stability, making them ideal for both practice and live performances. The 11-52 gauge offers a perfect balance of playability and tone, especially for lead playing. Constructed from 80% copper and 20% zinc wrapped around a hex-shaped steel core, these strings deliver a clear, ringing sound with pleasing overtones. They feel comfortable on the fingers and maintain their tone remarkably well, even during extended playing sessions. Highly recommended for acoustic guitar players looking for versatile, high-quality strings that sound great right out of the package Review: Great out of the packet and then improve with each play - look nice too - Straight out of the pack these have a lovely brightness and range of tone and then the develop with each play.

Works the same. On my acoustic, I just push it down a hole behind the bridge and a peg holds it in place. I've been using Ernie Ball strings since the 70's and they have always been like this. **Q: Would this guage be suitable for Gibson Acoustic guitar with 12-53 guage?,would Ihave to widen nut slots?** A: Hi there, these should fit on your Gibson no problem. **Q: Do these sets have a plain or wound G?** A: Hi thereIt's a very thin wound stringThanksRockem **Q: Would these be any good for a 3 string cigar box guitar?** A: This instrument is an Appalachian dulcimer. You can hear one played on Joni Mitchell "Blue", opening track, They have three strings or sometimes three double-course arrangements or a variant of this. Any guitar strings will be OK for length but you need to decide the gauge yourself - depends on how you tune it. Start with a wound "D", a wound "G" and a plain "B" or "E". Buy these separate rather than sets. If you don't know how to tune it - Google or listen to Joni Mitchell's "Blue" and Fairport Convention "Unhalfbricking" has a track with featured dulcimer. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fantastic Acoustic Guitar Strings with Smooth, Broken-In Feel *by P***G on 6 February 2025* recently tried the Ernie Ball Earthwood Light 80/20 Bronze Acoustic Guitar Strings (11-52 gauge), and I'm thoroughly impressed!
