Martin Retro MM12 Monel Light Acoustic Guitar Strings - 3 Pack | No Limit Guitar Co, Idaho Falls

Martin Retro strings deliver authentic vintage tone with modern reliability through their unique solid nickel/copper alloy blend construction. These light gauge strings feature Martin's proprietary Monel wrap wire that provides naturally corrosion-resistant performance and enhanced longevity with warm, natural tone. Designed for acoustic guitarists seeking reduced pick attack that allows their guitar's tonewoods to shine through, these strings offer consistent tone that sounds exceptional both acoustically and amplified.

Product Overview

The MM12 light gauge set utilizes Martin's exclusive Monel wrap wire, a nickel/copper alloy that creates a distinctly warm, vintage-inspired tone while providing excellent corrosion resistance for extended string life. The reduced pick attack characteristic allows the natural resonance and tonal qualities of your guitar's wood construction to be heard clearly, rather than being overshadowed by harsh string overtones. This creates a more balanced, musical sound that enhances the instrument's inherent voice.

The light gauge provides excellent balance between comfortable playability and strong projection, making these strings ideal for strumming, fingerstyle, and flatpicking techniques. Martin's precision manufacturing ensures consistent performance across all strings, with reliable intonation and tuning stability that professional and amateur players can depend on.

The convenient 3-pack format offers excellent value for regular players and ensures you always have fresh strings available for consistent performance and tone.
