{"product_id":"strings-authacou-540fx-phos-light","title":"Martin MA540FX Authentic Acoustic Flexible Core Phosphor Bronze Strings Light","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Martin MA540FX Authentic Acoustic Flexible Core strings are a light-gauge phosphor bronze set built around an unusual design choice: a thinner core wire matched with heavier wrap wire. That combination gives you the feel of a lighter string while still delivering the full, balanced tone you'd expect from a standard light set. If you've ever wanted easier bends and lower finger fatigue on an acoustic without dropping down to an extra-light gauge, this is a practical way to get there.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThese are a 6-string acoustic set gauged .012–.054 — the same overall range as a standard light set, but with that flexible core construction doing the heavy lifting. The wrap wire is 92\/8 phosphor bronze, which is Martin's standard alloy for their Authentic Acoustic line. The core is steel, wound in a round configuration. Martin labels this set \"Tommy's Choice,\" a nod to guitarist Tommy Emmanuel, who has used the Flexible Core strings as his go-to. These strings are not coated or treated, so they have the open, direct feel of traditional uncoated strings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eProduct Features:\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAuthentic Acoustic Flexible Core construction — thinner core wire with heavier wrap wire\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e92\/8 phosphor bronze wrap wire, steel core\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRound wound winding type\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLight gauge: .012, .016, .025, .032, .042, .054\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFor 6-string acoustic guitar\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eUncoated — traditional open feel and response\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Martin\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eModel:\u003c\/strong\u003e MA540FX Authentic Acoustic Flexible Core\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSKU:\u003c\/strong\u003e 41Y19MA540FX\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition:\u003c\/strong\u003e New\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSince 1872, C.A.
