Martin RETRO Tony Rice Monel Wound 13-56 Acoustic Guitar Strings
Martin Tony Rice Signature Monel 13-56 Medium Acoustic Strings MTR13
- Legendary Bluegrass artist, Tony Rice, played Martin Monel strings loyally on Clarence White’s 1935 D28 until they became unavailable in the 1970’s and he has been missing them ever since.
- The talented sound engineers at Martin Guitar worked hand-in-hand with Tony to bring back to life his favorite sound — Martin Monels.
- When the new formula was perfected, and Tony put them on his guitar, he said “Welcome back, old friend.”
- Tony’s favorite thing about Martin Monels is that they don’t change the timbre of the guitar.
- The compound, nickel-based alloy mellows very quickly to allow the natural, woody sounds of the guitar to pour from the sound hole, unaltered, from the very first strum.
- Gauges – 13 / 16 / 26 / 34 / 44 / 56
