The Classic Martin Tone in the Most Versatile Gauge – 80/20 Bronze Authentic Light 12-54
The Martin 80/20 Bronze Authentic Light is the best-selling Martin string set and the standard that generations of guitarists grew up with. The 12-54 light gauge offers the perfect balance between playability and tone: enough tension for a full, projected acoustic sound, yet supple enough for extended playing. The 80/20 bronze winding gives the clear, glassy tone that is characteristic of Martin – open, direct, and full of life.
The 80/20 bronze winding (80% copper, 20% zinc) around a steel core delivers a bright tone with a fresh attack and pronounced trebles. The 12-16-25-32-42-54 gauge is the standard choice for most steel-string acoustic guitars in standard tuning, and works particularly well on dreadnoughts and jumbo models. Produced by Martin with the quality standard that has been the norm for generations.
