  1. I have emailed them. Hopefully I'll get an answer. Some others on the forum said that they thought they were D'Addario EXP strings or possibly the J-200 gibson pb strings, which seems like a possibility. Anyway, if I hear a definitive answer from Gibson I'll let you guys know!
  2. I'm basing this just off my observations. The strings that came on the guitar are darker, more of a subdued brown color, something I associate with phosphor bronze and are slicker to slide under the fingers. The masterbuilt 80/20 strings are a very bright yellow color and stickier. I could be completely wrong, but just from appearance and feel, the strings seem different. I did buy the guitar from Sweetwater. Typically the guitars you get from them are factory fresh and not played previously. I'm also assuming they did not change the strings from the factory set.
  3. I recently purchased a 2017 J-45 and really like the strings that are on it from the factory. I've been scouring the forums trying to find out definitively what these strings are. Nobody seems to know with any certainty. The case came with an extra package of masterbuilt 80/20 light strings in it, but those are definitely not the strings that are on the guitar. Can someone from Gibson comment? I know they are light guage, but I want the make and model of the strings specifically, if possible... please! Thanks for any info, tcb
