The D'Addario EJ19 is a hybrid-gauge phosphor bronze set designed for acoustic guitarists who want the best of both worlds: light top strings that make single-note bending and intricate picking comfortable, paired with medium-gauge bottom strings that deliver fuller volume and projection. It's a go-to choice for bluegrass flatpickers, and works equally well for folk, country, and Americana.
D'Addario has been making phosphor bronze strings since 1974. On the EJ19, phosphor bronze wrap wire is precision-wound onto a hexagonally shaped high carbon steel core — a design that helps the wrap grip the core tightly, contributing to stable intonation and consistent feel across the life of the string. The set is made in the USA and comes in D'Addario's corrosion-resistant packaging to keep strings fresh right up until you're ready to play.
