FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

WHAT ARE 80/20 BASS GUITAR STRINGS?

80/20 Bronze acoustic bass guitar strings offer a bright and focused tone. The 80/20 Bronze name is a misnomer in the music industry as the metal wrap wire composition is 80% copper and 20% zinc, which is brass. Bronze is technically an alloy of copper and tin.
