Description
Ernie Ball’s Earthwood line grew out of the same string-shop roots that made the company a household name with players back in the early ’60s — a place where guitarists could get gauges tailored to how they actually wanted their instruments to feel and sound. This EB2153 Super Slinky set carries that legacy forward for 12-string acoustic guitar.
Each wound string is built from phosphor bronze wire — roughly 92% copper, 7.7% tin, and 0.3% phosphorus — wrapped tightly around a tin-plated, hex-shaped steel core. That alloy gives the set its signature light orange-gold hue and a tone that leans mellow and ringing rather than bright or brash, with clarity that holds up as the octave and unison pairs blend together.
- Designed specifically for 12-string acoustic guitars
- Gauges: .009/.009, .012/.012, .020w/.009, .026/.012, .036/.020p, .046/.026
- Phosphor bronze wrap wire for a warm, mellow tone
- Tin-plated hex steel core construction

If you’re chasing that lush, shimmering 12-string wash without losing note definition, this set delivers the balance of warmth and articulation Earthwood strings are known for.
