Description
The EJ11 set is D’Addario’s most requested acoustic gauge, and for good reason—it strikes a dependable balance between bright, articulate highs and a deep, projecting low end. Built from 80/20 bronze (often called brass), this alloy traces back to the 1930s when John D’Addario Sr. and John D’Angelico first chose it for acoustic strings, and it remains a favorite among stage performers, studio engineers, and players who appreciate that classic, historically rooted voice.
- Plain steel: .012, .016
- Bronze wound: .024, .032, .042, .053
Each string is wrapped around a hexagonally shaped, high-carbon steel core, a construction method that promotes accurate intonation and helps the strings hold their brightness over more playing sessions rather than dulling out quickly.
D’Addario builds every set domestically in the U.S.A. on digitally controlled, proprietary machinery, giving you the kind of set-to-set consistency that’s earned the company its reputation as The Players Choice among string manufacturers worldwide. The packaging itself is designed to resist corrosion, so the strings you open are just as fresh as the day they were made.
Whether you’re recording an album, playing live, or simply restringing your favorite acoustic, the EJ11 light set offers a versatile, road-tested tone that suits fingerstyle and strumming alike.
