Stour Delta Martin Guitar / Strings going dead why? (47) RE: Martin Guitar / Strings going dead why? 06 Feb 04


I think that unlike their guitars Martin strings are over rated. They start off less bright and seem to tire quickly.
I always use Ernie Ball "Earthwood" 80/20 bronze, light gauge are 52 to 11, they sound bright & crisp and last well.

Although they tend to be more brittle than other makes, not taking too well to much retuning and at £7 a set are not cheap.

Give 'em a try they should be much cheaper over there.
