Ernie Ball Earthwood 12-String Medium 80/20 Bronze Acoustic Guitar Strings, 11-52 Gauge (P02012)

Like most guitarists, I have tried just about every string made. I have found these to be very good for my Martin Jumbo 12 string! I like the feel, sound and quality. Awesome strings!

This is my first time purchasing these specific strings but I have used other Ernie Ball strings in the past. My girlfriend just broke her high E string and we decided we were just going to restring all of our guitars. It worked out perfectly being a 4 pack. Tone is great, quality is on par with the rest of Ernie Ball strings. I like the smaller gauge.

it has a bright and crisp sound. I am happy with the feel of the strings and the tone of them. it is a great value and delivered on time. would recommend them.

I play mostly acoustic guitar, and until now had used daddario exclusively on my steel and nylon stringed guitars. They had always sounded good and the company has a good range of strings to select from.About a year ago I got a mid 70's Yairi dreadnought. The guitar had been played hard all these years and the top was open and it sounded warm and powerful. I realized that there would likely be a search involved to find just the right strings to make the most of this well worn beauty.There were string gauge recommendations/limitations inthe soundhole of the guitar. Given the age of the top I wasn't going to exceed the limits. My normal dreadnought strings are Daddario EJ17's (13's, Mediums), but they were outside the limits. I tried EJ16's, the lights, but I felt the warmth was not what I had hoped. Older guitars often have this magic where you get fantastic projection without brittleness or strident tone. The EJ16's didn't bring out enough of the vintage character I felt the Yairi could provide.So I began searching other manufacturers to see what was available. These strings were a very close match to the gauge limits so I ordered a pair. Just what I had hoped! Warmth coupled with projection. These strings were a perfect fit for my vintage Yairi.I'll also mention that the B and high E strings feel unusually thin for their gauge...thinner than EJ16's. It's not bad, just a observation. They are every comfortable to play. You can really feel them under your fingers and they fret easily.The downside to these strings are that their tone tends to fade more quickly than my others, hence a 1 star deduction. The sound is so good and they are reasonably priced...despite this flaw I'm sticking with the 2003's.I've been using these strings for a year and I've never had a broken string. All the sets I've used in that time...about 10...have been uniformly excellent.If, like me, you're on a search for a warm, smooth sound that still has projection and power (and you have the guitar top to facilitate this), give these a try. They are perfect for my old Yairi and I've had a positive introduction to Ernie Ball!

If, you plan on venturing into using a guitar bow. Even the leading guitar bow company suggests these strings. Regular string cleaning after playing on them assure the best longevity. Like any string corrosion consists two factors, oil from fingers and dirt. I would suggest using a musician’s practice glove to prolong the strings as well. Gear is an important factor when playing guitar. I used to be a diehard GHS boomer user. Until, I decided to try Ernie Ball. Never regretted the switch. These earthwood strings are golden for diehard acoustic players.

I use these on a 1930's Kalamazoo KG 11 , and the tone these provide are so nice . They feel sturdy, and produce a great sound . These are great for country and blues sound.

They work and they're cheap. Win win!

What I love about this EB rock and blues 10-52 set is that I can play an acoustic like an electric, but they still have a great acoustic tone. The plain G allows me to do the same kind of bends and licks that I can on electric, which are impossible with a wound G string. If you've never tried these, you really should. Especially for OM/OOO guitars, they are absolutely perfect in my opinion.

Item received as expected. Great sounds from those strings

Bom produto é entrega ágil.

Carda excelente. Macia e traz uma sonoridade maravilhosa

muy buen producto, sin dudas lo volvería a comprar :)

Já comprei esse modelo de cordas 3 vezes para meu violão, e sempre fico surpreso com o timbre e sonoridade que elas proporcionam. O conjunto peca um pouco em durabilidade, onde algumas outras marcas podem se sobressair em relação a Ernie Ball, porém em questão de brilho, essas cordas tem um som muito mais bonito e aberto do que todas as outras que já experimentei.
