Made of Monel for Warm, Natural Tone: These strings use Monel—a nickel-based alloy known for its mellow response and clarity—to deliver smooth, vintage-inspired tone across the full range of your mandolin.
Medium Gauge for Balanced Feel and Projection: Gauged at .011, .015, .026, .040, this set provides just the right amount of tension for full tone and dynamic playability across all 8 strings.
Resonant from Day One: Designed to sound broken-in immediately and stay in the tonal sweet spot longer—no extended play-in time required.
Stable Tuning, Longer Playtime: Precision winding and consistent core tension reduce time spent tuning so you can focus on your performance.
Built for Standard 8-String Mandolins: Compatible with most traditional mandolins, this full 8-string set is crafted to Martin’s high standards of tone, feel, and durability.
