D'Addario EJ83M Gypsy Jazz Acoustic Guitar Strings (.011-.045)

The D'Addario EJ83M Gypsy Jazz Acoustic Guitar Strings (.011–.045) are specially designed to capture the distinctive voice and feel of traditional Gypsy jazz guitars. Developed with the unique construction of Selmer-style instruments in mind, these strings deliver the bright attack, fast response, and crisp articulation that define the unmistakable sound of jazz manouche. Whether you're playing Django Reinhardt classics, intricate rhythm accompaniment, or modern acoustic jazz, the EJ83M set provides the clarity and projection needed to bring every performance to life.

Constructed with silver-plated copper wound strings over a high-carbon steel core, the EJ83M produces a lively, balanced tone with plenty of sparkle and excellent note separation. Chords remain clear and punchy, while single-note runs cut through effortlessly, making these strings equally suited to rhythm playing and expressive lead work.

The medium-light .011–.045 gauge offers a comfortable playing feel while maintaining the snappy response and dynamic character that Gypsy jazz players expect. The lighter tension allows for fluid phrasing, quick picking, and effortless ornamentation without sacrificing volume or projection.

Designed specifically for Gypsy jazz guitars fitted with tailpieces, these strings feature loop ends rather than traditional ball ends, ensuring a secure fit on Selmer-style instruments and other compatible acoustic guitars that use this mounting system.

Built with D'Addario's renowned manufacturing quality, the EJ83M strings provide dependable tuning stability, consistent performance, and long-lasting tone, making them an excellent choice for rehearsals, recording sessions, and live performances alike.

At Musicmaker, we know that the right strings can completely transform both the sound and feel of your instrument. The D'Addario EJ83M Gypsy Jazz Strings are an outstanding choice for players looking to capture the authentic tone, responsiveness, and projection that this unique style of music demands.
