Martin MA170S Authentic Acoustic - Marquis Silked - 80/20 Bronze Extra Light ( 10-47 ) 41Y18MA170S

I wouldn’t use any other strings. Perfect for ovation round back guitars. Excellent tone. I find the extra light 10-47 gauge is good for playing guitar solos with a reasonable amount of bend and flex to hit certain notes in the solos. These are just slightly thicker than electric guitar strings but are the thinnest acoustic strings I could find (in phos bronze anyway)

Martin strings mean quality thought I’d try this version ‘ very good !

fantastic they feel and sound great on my martin guitar Tried lots of strings but these are the best

Martin strings are cheaper than the top quality strings and for a good reason. However, for novelty as much as anything, as I have a Martin OM28 Marquis, I thought I’d try the strings they recommend. The covering of the ball end certainly helps protect the bridge. But sound quality and durability? They place nice, feel better than some. I’m used to coated strings but felt these were acceptable. They lasted longer than I thought they would and went full after a couple of months, my Elixir last slightly longer. I’m happy to buy them for this guitar.

I only just heard about these strings: don't know why I never heard of them before. I have a Guild guitar and these sound lovely: very full sound, responsive to varying force therefore easy to control the general volume and balance the dynamics. They hold their intonation well. I've only just bought them so can't speak for the longevity hence just 3 stars for that. Otherwise, these are the best strings I've found for this guitar so far.

I never really enjoy playing my steel string acoustic as much as my other guitars. It never occurred to me this was because the strings made it such chore. Switching to these has been a real game changer. My guitar is a real joy to play now. I always enjoyed the lower tension on my classical guitar and these strings are made with a similar construction method to classical strings. Like classical strings they are not as bright as phosphor bronze but for me this is a good thing. I prefer the warmer, rounder tone these produce - phosphor bronze is just a little too brassy for my taste. Playability-wise they are somewhere between a conventional steel string and a classical. Finger picking is much easier and I can bend notes in a way that would have been a struggle before. I can’t really assess longevity as I have only just put them on, but to be honest unless they break in the next week I will be buying these again.

Soft strings good sound. One broke as I was tuning it. It never came into tune.

Great

It was good, my brother liked it.

Very good quality as always from Martin

Uso medios. Las he puesto en una D35. La envoltura de seda hace que suenen algo apagadas. Es como si mi guitarra fuese de caoba en vez de rosewood. No tienen el gruñido ni el brillo de cuerdas nuevas. He usado las mismas cuerdas sin la seda y son mucho más brillantes. No creo que la seda proteja la placa del puente porque lo que gasta esa placa es la bola del final de la cuerda y esa no va envuelta. Al llevar recubrimiento de seda son algo más gruesas al final pero se instalan bien y los pines de puente quedan bien asentados. Supongo que la durabilidad será similar a las SP. La tensión y la tocabilidad son similares a las otras cuerdas Martin. No las compraría de nuevo.

chitarra 12 corde. corda piccola del sol rotta dopo 10 giorni. delusione. ora cambio marca

After years of searching for the perfect strings for my Seagull Artist Studio, I have finally found them. Sound great with Indian rosewood back and sides. Not bassy, not to bright. The Goldilocks of acoustic guitar strings. Had tried different elixir strings, multiple Martin strings, and Godin strings. All the Martin's strings I tried were better than all the rest. Of course, personal choice.
