Review: Ideales para archtop y resonadoras - ReciĂ©n puestas suenan muy metĂĄlicas, pero al cabo de un tiempo suenan bien y siguen sonando bien mucho tiempo. Son perfectas para archtops acĂșsticas y para resonadoras. En guitarras acĂșsticas tipo flat top me suenan poco cĂĄlidas. Review: Corde G aigue qui a pĂ©tĂ© pendant l'installation ! - Le G aiguĂ« (0.23) a pĂ©tĂ© malgrĂ© toute ma prudence et prĂ©caution. Le pire, c'est que j'ai remplacĂ© cette corde par une d'un jeu Martin authentic tirant 10 (MA-500) Et malgrĂ© toute ma prĂ©caution redoublĂ©e, elle a aussi pĂ©tĂ© ! Finalement, j'ai remplacĂ© la fameuse corde par une de tirant 12 et ça va. Bref, mauvaise expĂ©rience malgrĂ© le son magnifique des cordes ! ## Features - Light: 12-54 - Crafted from a long-lasting proprietary nickel-based alloy blend - Mellows quickly to a warm vintage tone that brings out the unique, woody sounds in your acoustic guitar ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00JQZS4HG | | Best Sellers Rank | #1,823 in Musical Instruments ( See Top 100 in Musical Instruments ) #54 in Acoustic Guitar Strings | | Body Material Type | tin-plated steel core, Monel wrap | | Brand | Martin | | Brand Name | Martin | | Coating Description | coated | | Colour | Multicolor | | Country of Origin | USA | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 out of 5 stars 1,009 Reviews | | Finish Type | copper | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00729789418478, 00729789552936 | | Included Components | 6 guitar strings | | Instrument | Acoustic Guitar | | Item Type Name | Acoustic Guitar Strings | | Manufacturer | Martin | | Manufacturer Part Number | 41Y19MM12 | | Material Type | Nickel-Copper Alloy | | Model Name | MM12 | | Model Number | 41Y19MM12 | | Recommended Uses For Product | Acoustic music, finger-style blues, Americana, country, bluegrass, ragtime | | Sound Profile | Warm, Mellow, Balanced, Vintage | | String Gauge | Light | | String Material Type | Nickel | | UPC | 729789418478 729789552936 | | Unit Count | 1.00 Count | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Martin - **String Gauge:** Light - **Colour:** Multicolor - **Instrument:** Acoustic Guitar - **String Material Type:** Nickel ## Images ![Martin MM12 Retro Monel Acoustic Guitar Strings, Light, 12-54 - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61wHRtlAmsL.jpg) ![Martin MM12 Retro Monel Acoustic Guitar Strings, Light, 12-54 - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61O+ibGj3ML.jpg) ![Martin MM12 Retro Monel Acoustic Guitar Strings, Light, 12-54 - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/810Iof7WE3L.jpg) ![Martin MM12 Retro Monel Acoustic Guitar Strings, Light, 12-54 - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71NjHjkWSuL.jpg) ![Martin MM12 Retro Monel Acoustic Guitar Strings, Light, 12-54 - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81IMJucQf+L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Ideales para archtop y resonadoras *by E***H on 15 August 2021* ReciĂ©n puestas suenan muy metĂĄlicas, pero al cabo de un tiempo suenan bien y siguen sonando bien mucho tiempo.
