Love these strings
Great strings for bluegrass, folk, country and acoustic rock!
Best strings Ive ever played.
I can see why these were Tony Rice's favorite strings. So resonate and so smooth to play. Amazing bass and balance. I hope Martin never stops making them. They last a long time as well.
Don't settle for lesser strings
I've been using exclusively strings with nickel in them for a couple years now, and Martin really has a great formula with these sets. The advantages of nickel plated strings are all present: great tuning stability, warm, vintage sound, and boy do these things seem to last forever compared to copper plated strings. Another plus I've found in my playing is they can withstand plenty… read more of heavy beating even down close to the bridge. The only real negative is occasionally while flat picking I've noticed a bit of ringing from the second string exclusively while playing with the Tony Rice Bluegrass set.
Something a little different, nice!
On the recommendation of my sales engineer, I bought this set not really knowing what to expect. I was looking for a warmer, less harsh and bright set of strings. I was not disappointed. The Monel wrapped lower strings were unique in that they were gray in color as opposed to the usual gold/bronze color of typical acoustic strings. They felt smooth and well constructed. Once I strung… read more up this medium gauge set, they held their pitch after stretching, and it was very apparent that they were very well balanced and lacked some of the high ringing overtones you often get with a new set of strings. They sounded very good with a flat pick, either playing individual notes or strumming. Using fingers it was easy to vary the dynamics of attack to created different tonalities. Very pleased overall with this product.
