Martin MA540 Authentic Acoustic SP Guitar Strings, Phosphor Bronze, Light (.012-.054 )

When it comes to coaxing the full, resonant voice out of your acoustic guitar, few string sets deliver the clarity, warmth, and resilience of the Martin MA540 Authentic Acoustic SP Phosphor Bronze Light strings. Crafted for serious musicians who demand consistent tone and performance, these strings are built with the kind of attention to detail that only a heritage brand like Martin can offer.

The MA540s feature a light gauge (.012–.054), striking the perfect balance between effortless playability and rich tonal depth. Whether you're fingerpicking through introspective ballads or strumming hard-driving rhythms, these strings respond with bright highs, well-defined mids, and a touch of mellow warmth in the low end—thanks in part to the 92/8 phosphor bronze wrap

At the heart of each string is a high-tensile strength core wire, tin-plated for extra corrosion resistance. This construction not only helps them hold their tuning longer, but also makes them impressively tough—ready to stand up to the rigours of touring, recording, and relentless practice sessions.

Martin’s SP (Superior Performance) designation means these aren’t just any acoustic strings. They’re designed for players who want reliability without sacrificing tone. And if you're getting them through Musicmaker, you can trust you're pairing world-class strings with world-class service.
