Great strings for the right use.

9191910292 22.06.2026

Look, for my maple early 20th century roundhole archtops I need thicker strings that work the top a little bit more and the only poor thing about it id say is that (it doesnt change much since even when new theyre pretty normal sounding not at all like zingy new strings ever) but gets not so impressive after a while of use I mean a month or two. And Ive always wanted the darkest sound that I could get out of maple but more projection out of those laminated woods made to stand through time so nickel was always what was on my mind but having just pure nickel strings the projection is a problem so Monel mix is the best solution for me with it's sound and projection and tone. And yes its a bit straightforward sound a little darker than usual strings but not as dark and muddy as just nickel more fitting to the mid qualities of laminated maple and alike and they feel mostly like an empty canvas really depending on your guitar and wood choices. But id say go for this as its the thickest option available to get more than usual bass out of them, wish that the 14's were still being made but theyre not and like I said just go for little more thicker than the usual string size you like on that particular instrument and they feel a little rough yes but not at all hard to play theyre pretty pretty easy to press on and whatnot feeling almost a little like round cores compared to most other strings ive used but like I said for projection and more bass qualities go thicker than you usual gauge.

Tony Rice Strings

I use a Lakewood D14CP . The sound is warm and not too bright like 80/20 or even phosphor bronze strings. They last quite a long time showing no wear or signs from moisture. I really like the sound that I get, alot of people say that guitars with mahagoni sound nice, honestly I think these would sound good on any acoustic.

Up to now these are my favorite strings to use because they give me THE sound that I want.

love these on my mahogany guitar....

These seem slightly 'zingier' than my usual strings but that works really well, with my small, all-mahogany guitar.

Best strings for country rock

August US Jones 01.12.2017

Problems I've had with phosphor bronze stings include the wearing and corrosion on the strings where they meet the pick, and the distinctly "brighter" top end of the high E and B, resulting in too high a tone relative to the thicker strings. These Tony Rice strings are consistent in sound across all strings, and have a mellowness simply not found in PB strings. The only downside to the Martin lineup is deciding which of the Retro strings to buy... that and having a pile of PB string sets that are going to go unused.
