These are clearly the best treated strings ever made. They sound like regular strings. And definitely last. They sound almost identical to the day they were put on more than a month out. Great singing highs with a nice projecting lower mid range. Idk what these people giving bad reviews are talking about. Dadarrio XS sounds thin in comparison, don't take my word for it, go listen to them. XT are coated so just forget them. They sound dead out of the package. These are the best. Bright, yet warm, projecting yet rich, and still have that Martin growl. I used to HATE Martin strings and will never use coated ones. So for now me to love these, well that's saying something. Martin nailed it. And anyone saying they're fingers are black etc blah blah. That's the dirt and oils from your hands because the strings aren't soaking it up. Wash your hands ffs.I also read someone broke there strings 3 times? Boss just stop. Clearly you had a burr on your saddle or did something else when tuning them. These guys cleary use high quality cores and even if you don't like the sound, them breaking over and over is absurd. Not gonna happen.Btw, speaking on that point, the build quality is great. They are grippy yet dare I say a hair smoother. The finish is great on the phosphor wrap. Nice and shiny. And the ball wraps are done beautifully and tight. Much different than past Martin strings. They cleary are taking the string market seriously now.I've tried every single brand of string, from every country, and the best phosphors I've played are GHS Phosphor, GHS Americana, Martin authentic 2.0, Newtone masterclass and newtone masterclass double wound. That's a serious group that Martin just joined. Good on them ðŸ‘

Because maybe I'm OCD or something I refuse to buy any other strings for my Martin than the ones that came on it or at least the same brand of strings. Most new Martins come with their Acoustic SP coated strings (source: Martin FAQ) if you bought yours between 2016 and 2019.I went to Guitar Center originally and asked for Martin Acoustic SP strings and they gave me these instead. I thought the packaging was just different but I guess Martin actually made some sort of changes to how they make the strings and that whole "2.0" on the packaging is not just marketing hype.With all that said, I don't think there's that much of a difference between the two but just know that there is one. Now on to how they sound and all that.First off, these are long lasting strings. I've seen guys keep a set of Martin SP strings on their guitars for literally years and while they don't sound good at all they're still playable. If you're a normal player, you could probably get away with changing these out once a month or even less often if you're a light player. I tend to just go by sound and feel so I end up changing them every three weeks on average.For people with sweaty hands like me, what's nice about these is that they don't gunk up the lighter, unwound strings even after some heavy use. I've used other coated/long lasting strings for acoustics and electrics like EB Paradigms and NYXLs and these Martin strings beat them hands down in terms of keeping that black gunk off the strings and keeping it shiny longer.These strings tend to have a longer break-in period (at least in my opinion) than other acoustic strings. They sound really bright and have a lot of attack for longer. I'm not the biggest fan of that sound but once that phase is over they have a beautiful warm tone that really brings out the unique sound of your guitar. Whenever I put on a new set it always feels like the action got higher but after playing for a bit things settle and the strings sound and feel like they've been a part of the guitar forever.I would describe the sound of these strings as warm with a lot of attack and sustain. Compared to the regular (or previous - not sure what you want to call them) SP strings they're a bit stiffer and not as warm but that's only compared to the strings that come on the guitar. On their own or compared to most other brands these are warm, long lasting, strings with a lot of attack especially when new.

These strings are pretty decent. Stellar? Yes. Do I appreciate a good sound? Yes!! Are these Elixir-level "good"? No. But are Elixirs a little *too* much? Yes, personally, I think so. I've never, ever liked them. For one, their gauges always seem too thick for what you order. I digress. Where was I? Ah, yes! Martin Guitar Strings! For one, these are pretty much the exact same strings that come on a Martin guitar when you buy it new. Did I buy them for that reason? Yes! Hell, I LOVED the way my guitar sounded straight out of the box (tuned a bit, of course), so that was what I was going for when I bought these for fifteen buckaroos on Amazon. Not a bad price, if you ask me!CONS/PROS: Martin guitars have a bit of a harsher feel in general, than, say Taylor guitars. As such, I believe that their strings lack a bit of the full-bodied, buttery sounds that Taylors give off. It's just a bit harsh. But that's the beauty of Martin. Personally, I've always loved guitars that sound less buttery, more... Olive Oil-y? It's hard to describe. More tooth, less paste. More putter, less golf. More scratch, less smooth. More harsh, less soft. You get my drift? My flow? Etc, etc... I digress. Again. Anyway, these strings can be seen as less full than other strings, but to me, that is a pro. Do I like them the most? Hell no. I prefer DR strings, the ones in the Green packet. I've used those for centuries. But these? These will do for now.I Martin > Taylor

Très bonnes cordes je cherchais des cordes qui sonnent mieux que les élixirs mais toutes aussi qualitative c’est le cas. Le seul bémol c’est qu’elles sont un peu rigide

J'en suis très content. J'ai une Lag (folk) et je retrouve à peu de choses près le son de mes cordes d'origine. Ces cordes Martin semblent plutôt de bonne conception, et de qualité. Je verrai bien dans le temps comment elles vieillissent.
