You've probably heard these generalizations about acoustic guitar strings: 80/20 strings are "bright" and "bass-y." Phosphor Bronze strings are "warm" and "darker." Hmm... Really?
While the tonal differences ARE obvious, the generalizations are misleading. For example, with their extra midrange punch, Phosphor Bronze strings can sound BRIGHTER than 80/20s on certain guitars.
In this video, Robert explains the chemical, corrosive and tonal differences between 80/20 and Phosphor Bronze strings and offers some opinions about which string type is best suited to specific guitar types and brands.
