Martin

collapse expand iconDescription

Martin Authentic Acoustic strings are engineered with the performer in mind and they will always stand up to rigorous practice and performance schedules.

Martin start with their highest tensile-strength core wire, then tin-plate it on all six strings for added corrosion resistance; because what you don’t see matters. When coupled with the highest quality wrap wire you get consistent true tone that you can count on song after song.

Available in 80/20 Bronze and 92/8 Phosphor Bronze.

Custom-Light gauge: 11-15-23-32-42-52

Been using them for years...

Everything, everywhere, and all the time. I've been using them (Martin Strings) as a studio and touring guitarist since I had my first Martin. I have found they work on every type of acoustic I have ever had, from D's to OO's to cutaways with no electronica and with electronics. What else can I say. They are great strings.

I like the gauge, but I wish Martin would return the Retro

Good strings but I prefer Retro Custom Lights

    I use these strings on all 6 of my acoustic guitars, Martins, Takamines and Ovations. I play daily and perform publicly weekly in several venues with three different ensembles. In 30 years I have only broken ONE string!

  • I will buy this again
