If you play acoustic bass, your string options are genuinely limited — and Ernie Ball's Earthwood Phosphor Bronze set is one of the go-to choices for good reason. These are a 4-string set in .045–.095 gauge, designed specifically for acoustic bass guitar.
The wrap wire is phosphor bronze — 92% copper, 7.7% tin, and 0.3% phosphorus — wound around a tin-plated hex-shaped steel core. That construction gives the strings their characteristic warm, slightly golden tone with good note definition across the range. The hex core also helps keep the wrap wire locked in place, which contributes to consistent intonation.
