D'Addario LE047PB Guitar string

Phosphor Bronze Single String for Acoustic Guitar

The D'Addario LE047PB is a single .047" gauge acoustic guitar string wound with phosphor bronze over a hex-shaped high-carbon steel core. Part of the Loop End Singles line, this string is designed for players who need to replace a single broken string or build a fully customized gauge set rather than buying a pre-packaged set. The loop-end construction fits acoustic guitars equipped with loop-end bridge pins, making it a practical solution for vintage instruments, specific bridge designs, or players who simply prefer loop-end hardware. Phosphor bronze winding delivers a warm, bright tone with excellent intonation and long life.

Who It's For

The LE047PB is the right choice for acoustic guitar players who need a single replacement string in .047" gauge — typically used as a low E or A string on certain custom or non-standard gauge sets. It suits players with loop-end bridge pins on their acoustic guitar, those building a custom gauge combination, or anyone who has broken a single string and wants to avoid replacing an entire set. The phosphor bronze winding delivers a warm, bright tone with excellent intonation, making it suitable for a wide range of acoustic styles from fingerstyle to strumming.
