GHS Silk and Bronze 12 String Acoustic Guitar 370-12L Light 11-49

✅

First recommended to me on the Guild forum. They can be tuned down a full step and still sound amazing. Also Get these if you’re trying to avoid wrist strain. Easiest playing Strings ever. They are warm yet still jangle and sparkle nicely in my maple 512 guild guitar.

. . . . the Martin Silk&Phosphors I've been using (and like a lot), and even moreso from my old go-to D'Addario Silk&Steels. So far I am struck by the near vocal-like quality of the A-strings from the 2nd-5th frets; and C at the 3rd has a "tin oboe''-like overtone that I've never heard this guitar make before. I need to go over the whole axe for this seasons' winterization yet anyway, so I promise not to panic until I get a chance to explore further.
I do REALLY like physical feel of these strings in my hands while playing; they feel noticeably more supple, and noticeably different from the old standby. And for clarity, but mostly for saving the neck and heel joint, I tune down a full step to D G C F A D, and prefer to transpose whenever appropriate/doable, rather than capo. I've yet to find a satisfactory capo for 12-strings, anyway.
Thumb's up, so far!

Merry Christmas, Ralphie&crew!!
