Description: Martin MA140 SP strings are engineered with the performer in mind and will always stand up to rigorous practice and performance schedules. The highest tensile-strength core wire is tin-plated on all six strings for added corrosion resistance; what you don't see matters as much as what you hear. When coupled with the highest quality wrap wire, these strings deliver consistent true tone you can count on from song to song.
The 80/20 bronze alloy produces a crisp, bright acoustic tone with excellent clarity and articulation, making these strings ideal for strumming, flatpicking, and balanced fingerstyle applications. Superior tuning stability and corrosion resistance ensure reliable performance whether recording in the studio or performing live on stage. The light 12–54 gauge offers the perfect balance of playability and volume, suitable for a wide range of dreadnought and concert-sized acoustics. Available in both 80/20 bronze and phosphor bronze options, these strings deliver the tone quality Martin has refined over five decades of string manufacturing.
