Reviewed in the United States on October 25, 2023
I recently re-strung my acoustic guitar with Ernie Ball Earthwood Custom Light Phosphor Bronze Acoustic Guitar Strings, and I couldn't be more thrilled with the results. These strings have reinvigorated my playing experience in every way possible.

The Custom Light gauge strikes a perfect balance between playability and tonal richness. These strings are incredibly easy on the fingers, making chord changes and intricate fingerpicking a breeze. But it's not just about ease – the tone they produce is absolutely fantastic. The phosphor bronze construction provides a warm, well-rounded sound with just the right amount of brightness, making my guitar sing like never before.

One of the standout features of these strings is their durability. Even after extended playing sessions, they maintain their tone and intonation exceptionally well. This is a crucial factor for me, as it means I can spend more time playing and less time restringing.

Ernie Ball is known for its quality, and it's evident with these strings. They are consistent in terms of gauge and tone, and I have yet to encounter a dud in any of the sets I've purchased. It's this level of reliability that keeps me coming back.

As a guitarist, it's essential to have strings that inspire you, and Ernie Ball Earthwood Custom Light Phosphor Bronze Acoustic Guitar Strings do just that. They offer the ideal blend of comfort, durability, and beautiful tone. Whether you're a seasoned musician or a beginner, I wholeheartedly recommend giving these strings a try. They've certainly breathed new life into my playing, and I can't wait to see where they take your music!

Used these to restring a 1950's Gibson J45. Sounds beautiful. Nice light gauge, easy to work with and play.

I have used so many styles of Ernie ball over the years. These worked great for a cheap acoustic. Sound is better. I always got lots of life from EBs in the past and I assume these will last a long time as well. Great tone and mellow sound. Very happy will buy again when time for a new set

Reviewed in the United States on September 2, 2024
These are good quality, but less expensive strings. I have used these quite a bit on several of my acoustics. For the price point of these strings, for me, the tone quality is more than I would have expected, especially for a light gauge set. They are worth giving a try.

Love the tone on my recently acquired Alvarez 12. The pickup tracked well and sounds great electrically. They actually stay in tune having put them on two days ago and already holding tune well.

Reviewed in the United States on June 17, 2024
I decided to self-learn the guitar several months ago and so I got a "starter" guitar, which I hadn't replaced the strings on since I started. I got these to replace the strings and WOW my guitar sounds so much better with these strings! I actually somehow feel like the guitar is easier play with these, and the sound is deeper and clearer. Plus, they seem quite durable. I'll definitely keep buying these, especially because the price is so great.
