What kinds of strings are used on Ovation Guitars?
We use D’Addario EXP16 (.012-.053) Phosphor Bronze strings on our guitars. Another string we like is the Adamas 1818 (.012-.053) Phosphor Bronze. Our 12-string models use D’Addario EXP38 (.010-.047). You can use whatever string suits your playing style. Heavier or lighter strings might require a truss rod adjustment. D’Addario Pro Arte (EJ46) hard tension strings are used on USA-made Ovation nylon string guitars. We also like the Adamas 4444 or the Savarez Alliance high tension.
