Description
Ernie Ball’s Paradigm line represents a serious leap forward in string engineering, backed by a 90-day guarantee against breakage or rust. The 2088 Light set brings that technology to 80/20 bronze acoustic strings, gauged .011, .015, .022w, .030, .042, .052.
At the core of every Paradigm string is ultra-high strength steel, used in both the plain and wound strings. This isn’t just marketing talk – Ernie Ball’s refined wire-drawing process delivers up to 37% more tensile strength and up to 70% more fatigue resistance compared to conventional sets, so strings settle into tune quickly and stay there even under aggressive picking or bending.
Durability doesn’t stop at the steel. A plasma-enhanced wrap wire fights off corrosion, while Ernie Ball’s Everlast nano-treatment keeps sweat, skin oils, and everyday grime from building up on the string surface. The result is a set that lasts noticeably longer without the trade-offs typically associated with coated strings – no dulled tone, no rubbery feel, no flaking.
What you’re left with is the sound Ernie Ball has been known for since 1962: warm, articulate 80/20 bronze projection with the added confidence that comes from strings engineered to survive real-world playing conditions.
