Martin M200 Original Silk and Steel 12 String Acoustic Strings 11.5-47

Been using these for years now, ever since I heard about 'em. If you've got a 12 that's not a top-of-the-liner, a vintage Yamaha like mine for instance, do your guitar a favor & install a set that's not gonna warp the top, separate the bridge, or put undue strain on the neck. The acoustic sound is not as loud or aggressive as a bronze set, but in my opinion where they shine is with a piezo-equipped guitar through a decent amp or sound system. Don't take a chance on ruining a good guitar that's got some miles on it; play it safe and use only Martin silk & steel.

These strings are amazing. They may not sound nice and bright and chimey as phosphor bronze or 80/20’s. And despite them being silk like classical guitar strings they still have their own character. Loud, full volume...it’s got a beautiful sounding glow despite lower tension. Fingerstyle type playing may be “easier” on the fingers than phosphor bronze strings, I tune to near standard turning...all just a half step lower (6= Eb etc etc) and I can get very classical-esque guitar harmonics from it. These msrtin’s also have an evenness of sound. Highly highly recommended.

Order was processed and received strings earlier than promised.
