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.

Very happy
These are currently my favourite guitar strings. After you put them on the guitar a d play them for a few days they sound even better and they last a long time. Highly recommended

Best strings from Martin
Martin strings normally go dead fast but due to the monel alloy these last a long time (almost as long as coated strings)In terms of tone, on a rosewood dreadnought they tend not to sound the best but on a mahogany guitar they sound wonderful and are a must try.
