Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
This three-set acoustic-string package combines two NB1356 Nickel Bronze sets with one EJ16 Phosphor Bronze set, giving you both constructions in one purchase. The NB1356 sets use gauges from .013 to .056, uncoated Nickel Bronze wrap, and NY Steel cores; D’Addario describes them as clear, resonant, balanced, and rich in overtones, with improved tuning stability and break resistance. The EJ16 set runs .012 to .053 and uses phosphor bronze wrapping over a hex core, bringing depth and sparkle to a dreadnought guitar.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Trying Nickel Bronze and Phosphor Bronze acoustic-string sets on the same guitar.
- Players seeking two .013–.056 Nickel Bronze sets alongside one .012–.053 Phosphor Bronze set.
