    Ernie Ball Earthwood Medium Light 80/20 Bronze Sets, .012 - .054 (3 Pack)

    • I feel that these strings are not what they say they are, when i tryed to tune my guitar the strings broke before i got it tuned
    • Phenomenal guitar strings with a nice warm tone.
    • I absolutely love these strings and have been using them since they came out years ago - relatively low stretch when new, they last a long time if you keep your them clean, and it is amazing how well my guitars stay in tune, even with (sometimes) weeks in between use
    • Older guitars often have this magic where you get fantastic projection without brittleness or strident tone
    • I'm sure they are great on the right guitar since the lighter gauges are nice.
    • Im not a great guitar player and had resigned myself to believing that I could never get that nice warm tone I hear from better guitar players or more expensive acoustics
    • All I can say is that it is like a different guitar: easy to play, my hands don't get fatigued any more, and it sounds twangier, which is the kind of sound I prefer
    • I stumbled on to a blog where a guy had almost the same problem and a fellow told him to use 80/20 strings not PB on cedar top guitars
    • and these mediums are preferable to the med lights for me, but if your a fancy guitar picker or want less pain in the fingers go lighter
    • Unfortunately, these thicker strings do not deliver that bright, sparkly sound that the lighter gauge do, but they DO keep the neck straight and sound "OK", but I will need to research better sounding guitar.
    • I have never played a guitar long enough to judge the different manufactures.
    • Having broken my wrist as I originally go into playing the guitar, I purchased these strings to replace my old ones and they have been great.
    • My guitar thanks you as well (grin).

    • these are EXTRA light strings, so they tend to sound tinny on less expensive guitars
    • For the sake of experimentation, I replaced only the G string with an alternate string I had lying around and have no tuning issues whatsoever anymore
    • Usually the G-string on my acoustic snaps within a couple of weeks, but so far so good with these strings.

    • As others have mentioned, the G is unwound which you may or may not like; it doesn't seem to make much difference to me
    • The high G string broke as I was tuning it to pitch
    • If you favor a unwound G, you can pickup a set of Ernie Ball 2008 Earthwood 80/20 Bronze Rock & Blues Acoustic String Set, (10 - 52), which have a bigger E string as well
    • but as of now, not too happy with the sound that is coming from the strings.
