I need help identifying the darker guitar string. For comparison the lighter one is phosphor bronze. The darker one sounds mellower than the bronze. What is it:confused:

The darker one appears to be an accoustic string, from what I gather.
Why would you need to know the actual metal...just get a bunch of Martin strings...they're the best.

Different metals have different sounds on acoustic guitars. I'd like all the strings to match in sound

the answer is it doesnt matter. replace all the strings, that way you know they will match. theres virtually no way to know exactly what string it is, so just buy a full set

also strings wear out after a month or two of continuous play, so it would sound different even if you did find exact matches

I bought a set of phosphor bronze, thinking that they would match, but they sound too twangy compared to the old strings. I want a more mellow sound.:drool2:

new acoustic strings have a different sound until they wear in and get retuned once or twice. What you are hearing is a change from old dull strings to new tight ones. Deal wit it. Eric claptons series are good too. holy shit im drunk.
