"D'Addario's acoustic bass string line is wound with the same phosphor bronze alloy as our most popular acoustic guitar strings. Standard equipment on many of the world's finest acoustic bass guitars, these strings are bright and long lasting with a good, solid, fundamental tone."
D'Addario's EPBB170-5 provides a rich, deep and projecting tone for all 5=String acoustic basses.
Phosphor Bronze was introduced to string making by D'Addario in 1974 and has become synonymous with warm, bright, and well balanced acoustic tone. D'Addario Phosphor Bronze strings are precision wound with corrosion resistant phosphor bronze onto a carefully drawn, hexagonally shaped, high carbon steel core. The result is long lasting, bright sounding tone with excellent intonation.
