Martin MLJ13 Laurence Juber's Choice Retro Monel Acoustic Guitar Strings 13-56

Step back in time to the authentic sound of the 1930s with Martin Retro acoustic strings, the genuine article that started it all. These aren't modern reproductions or imitations – they're the real deal, crafted using the same traditional methods that made Nickel strings legendary amongst guitarists for decades.

What sets Martin Retros apart is their construction using Monel, a solid Nickel/Copper wrap wire that's naturally corrosion resistant. Unlike nickel-plated alternatives that can develop defects in their coating, leading to premature corrosion, Martin's proprietary wrap wire maintains its integrity throughout the string's life. This solid construction approach ensures exceptional durability and longevity.

The sophisticated winding process employed by Martin controls the coupling between core and wrap wire, maximising intonation accuracy across the fretboard. This results in a uniquely mellow yet crisp tone that allows your guitar's natural tone woods to shine through rather than being overshadowed. Martin Retros offer consistent, true tone that stands apart from anything else available today – one tough set of strings built to last.
