New from Martin and now available in the UK, Martin Retro Strings!<\/b><\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Martin Retro Strings recreate the \u2018Martin Monel\u2019 brand of string from the late 60s and 70s, and use a nickel-copper alloy that is corrosive resistant and tends to have extended playability over traditional 80\/20 or 92\/8 strings. The nickel-copper alloy mellows quickly to allow the natural, woody sound of the guitar to pour from the soundhole, and respond greatly to the woods used in the guitar construction. They also have a uniquely silvered appearance, similar to an electric guitar string.<\/p>\n
