Martin Retro Acoustic Bluegrass Tony Rice 13-56 Strings

Retro strings are made with tin-plated steel core wire and solid Monel wrap wire – a proprietary blend of nickel and copper - that is naturally corrosion resistant. Martin offers modified gauging on the B, D, and A strings for modern playability. The modified gauging makes the string easier to play with a more balanced feel and clear intonation.

From Tony Rice:
"I never thought I'd see the day when I could put Martin Monel Strings back on my D-28. Welcome back, old friend. I've missed you."
