EJ45LP "lightly polished," normal tension, is D'Addario's best-selling "lightly polished" set, preferred for its balance of rich tone and smooth feel. Includes Alternate Composite 3rd String for increased projection.
All Pro-Arte treble strings are manufactured with our in-house extruded nylon, ensuring consistent strings with precise intonation. Pro-Arté basses are wound using silver-plated copper on a multi-filament nylon core for consistent and warm, yet projecting tone.
Polymer Extrusion Process
D'Addario's polymer extrusion line produces strings with exceptional control over string diameter and concentricity. These variables ensure the accurate tension and intonation of every string we make.
Lightly Polished Strings
Lightly polished strings feature wrap wire that is wound over a composite multifilament core, then polished to a bright finish. This results in a smooth playing surface with reduced finger noise.
X-Y Laser Measurement
Two-axis laser micrometers continuously monitor the polymer extrusion process, ensuring precise control of string diameter and concentricity. This process results in consistent string tension and accurate intonation.
