Check this out! Dean Markley VintageBronze acoustic strings are the perfect compromise between the shine and bite of brass and the comfortable warmth you only get from phosphor bronze. The way they do it is with a special blend of 85% Copper and 15% Zinc — not 80/20 like regular brass. And the awesome thing is that Dean Markley"s been making these strings for over 30 years, so you know they"re doing it right. You want bright and rich tone, you"ve got it with Dean Markley VintageBronze acoustic strings.
