The D'Addario EJ17 is a medium-gauge phosphor bronze acoustic guitar string set, covering gauges .013 to .056. These are a solid go-to if you play with a heavier touch — the extra tension holds up well to hard strumming, flatpicking, and drop or alternate tunings where lighter strings can feel a little loose.
D'Addario wound their first phosphor bronze strings back in 1974, and the EJ17 builds on that same recipe: phosphor bronze wrap wire wound onto a hexagonally shaped, high-carbon steel core. The hex core gives the wrap wire something to grip, which keeps the strings stable and in tune. Two of the six strings (.013 and .017) are plain steel; the remaining four are phosphor bronze wound. The whole set is made in the USA and packaged in D'Addario's corrosion-resistant, environmentally friendly packaging to keep them fresh until you're ready to play.
