Acoustic String Comparison: 80/20 vs. Phosphor Bronze

D'Addario Acoustic Guitar Strings - https://www.zzounds.com/a--3971116/pr...
Today I wanted to help you (and myself) settle an age old argument - do you prefer the sound of 80/20 or phosphor bronze acoustic strings? In today's video, we're going to be playing some back to back samples on the two D'Addario strings sets. We'll be using the same mics, pick, right hand position, and guitar in order to isolate as many variables as possible so that the only difference you're hearing is coming from the strings. Honestly, this video is for myself as much as it is for the person watching it.

To say a bit about the different sets - 80/20 strings have been around since the early 1900's and in fact were one of the first alloys used in making steel guitar strings. They're known for having a loud, very bright tone to them. They're made to cut through the mix and provide more volume than other sets. The phosphor bronze design is made with the intention of getting a warmer, more full tone. For that reason, they might be better for recording purposes or for playing out live with other amplification. This video will help you make the decision for which string set you prefer.
