The Strings of Choice from a Legend!

Blues legend Eric Clapton needs no introduction, but the strings he uses to get the tone he is known for aren't as well known. Now Martin is putting them front and center with the Clapton's Choice Acoustic Guitar Strings Phosphor Bronze. These tone-rich strings are made with traditional core wire and tin-plated steel for a clear, warm tone and long life. Guitarists here at Sweetwater love these strings.

I picked up the guitar two years ago. My "starter" guitar is a 2013 Guild D55 ... which is really my guitar for life because I can't find an accoustic that sounds better. After two years, I replaced the strings. I tried light strings (sounded horrible) and medium coated strings (sounded better, but not great). I spoke with a guy at my local guitar shop and he recommended the Martin Clapton Choice Phosphor Bronze, medium, for the Guild. I put them on and boy was he right. I'm getting the deep, rich, clear sound that attracted me to the Guild in the first place. If you have a Guild D55 try these on your next string swap. You won't be disappointed.

I get these in 13's, and they are huge and heavy but I tune them down to D#, and they sound so good.
