Extra light feel to unleash the dynamics of your 12-string

The Martin MA500 Authentic SP Extra Light strings are aimed at guitarists who want to regain the brightness and depth typical of Phosphor Bronze, while enjoying a softer feel under the fingers. This extra light gauge facilitates long sessions, fast transitions, and subtle nuances, especially appreciated on a 12-string acoustic guitar where overall tension can quickly become demanding. Thanks to a design focused on durability, with a robust core and anti-corrosion treatment (tin plating on 6 strings), you get a consistent response, stable intonation, and coherent musical output from the first chord to the last chorus.
