Hear the Aluminum Bronze Difference!

Ernie Ball strings have been a top choice for players of all types since the early 1960s, when guitarists came into Ernie Ball's music store, customizing their string gauges to make their axes easier to play. After fruitless attempts to interest major guitar manufacturers in a lighter set of strings, Ernie Ball decided to start making his own. When you open a pack of his strings today, you know you're getting a quality set of strings designed to give you great tone, reliable performance, and long life. Ask any guitar expert - you can't go wrong when you string up with Ernie Ball strings! Increase your guitar's projection and clarity with Ernie Ball Aluminum Bronze Acoustic Strings. Utilizing a special blend of copper and aluminum wrappings over Maraging Steel hex cores, these strings bring out pronounced lows and crisp highs from any acoustic guitar.
