D'Addario BW025 Guitar string

D'Addario BW025 — 80/20 Bronze Single String for Acoustic Guitar

The D'Addario BW025 is a single replacement string designed for acoustic guitar, featuring an 80/20 Bronze wrap wire wound over a hex-shaped high-carbon steel core. At .025" gauge (0.64 mm), it serves as a mid-weight option — commonly fitted as the G string on a standard light or custom acoustic set. This string is the right choice for acoustic players who need a bright, crisp replacement string without buying a full new set. The 80/20 Bronze wrap produces a sparkling, trebly tone with remarkable depth and powerful projection, making it well suited to strumming and flatpicking styles. Drawn to exacting specifications at D'Addario's New York production facility, each string delivers consistent quality from the first note to the last.

Who Is This String For?

The BW025 suits acoustic guitarists who need to replace a single worn or broken string without committing to a full set purchase. It works well for players who prefer the bright, crisp character of 80/20 Bronze — a tone that cuts through in ensemble settings and adds sparkle to rhythm guitar work. This gauge is commonly used as the G string in light or custom gauge sets, and it pairs naturally with other D'Addario 80/20 Bronze singles available in the same series. Players who favor a warmer, mellower sound may prefer phosphor bronze alternatives, but those seeking maximum brightness and projection will appreciate what this string brings to the table. Made in the USA to D'Addario's exacting standards, it delivers reliable performance for daily practice, live gigs, and studio sessions alike.
