I used to buy expensive strings, but as a working musician in tough times you need to make some adjustments. This was an easy one for me. Great quality strings at a very affordable price. Allows me to change strings regularly and have plenty of spares for back-ups...Hey, strings break! I have a heavy strum so I don't blame a string when it breaks. I found these will last a long time.
My opinion is that even the finest strings get covered in sweat, beer, chicken wing sauce, and salty air (here on the east coast), pretty quick. It just doesn't make sense for me to spend extra money on expensive strings when doing gigs. Now, if I was setting up to record, I might buy some top end ones....but probably not - lol These are great strings - sound awesome!

forget about these and check out coated strings
Martin's uncoated strings are worthless. They wear out way too quickly, don't produce a resonant tone, and don't stay in tune very well. For excellent guitar strings, try their longlife EXP or SP...Read complete review

If you want the best, try the elixir nanoweb custom light strings.. By far superior to any competition. I own a 1968 Gibson J-45 and a 12 string Martin, and those elixir strings make my guitars sound like they are plugged into an amp.. amazing tone, projection, durability, and most of all, playability. dont waste your money on some piece of crap strings.
Comments about Martin M150 80/20 Bronze Round Wound Medium Acoustic Strings 10-Pack:
First of all why are all these people talking about Elixir strings like their made of gold. Their the most over rated strings on the market and they cost as much as gold. These Martin 13's I've been using for years. They last a long time if you keep them clean. They sound great and you can't beat the price. Your wasting your time with anything else (as far as flat top acoustic guitars go).
Comments about Martin M150 80/20 Bronze Round Wound Medium Acoustic Strings 10-Pack:
I've been using Elixir for years, and I realized how great these strings sound on Martin guitars. So I picked up a pack of em and put em on my Gibson Hummingbird and I will NEVER EVER EVER use any other strings on it again!
Comments about Martin M150 80/20 Bronze Round Wound Medium Acoustic Strings 10-Pack:
Wow!! If I have a 10-pack of Martin Medium gauge strings, I would not have to buy new strings for an even longer time!!
Comments about Martin M150 80/20 Bronze Round Wound Medium Acoustic Strings 10-Pack:
Don't buy these strings if you're used to playing with Elixirs. I made the mistake and promptly sold the remaining 9 packs to a friend. However, these are average strings for a killer price, so take advantage if you don't want to pay a higher price for better strings. This being said, a single pack of Elixirs will set you back $20 including shipping. Oh yeah, rotten intonation but the strings stay bright for about 2 weeks.
Comments about Martin M150 80/20 Bronze Round Wound Medium Acoustic Strings 10-Pack:
I have used just about every brand of strings manufactured, but found these to be the best I have ever used. Broke strings at almost every program or gig. I now use 80/20 bronze on both my Taylors and my EJ200 Gibson Epiphone, and very seldom break a string. Clarity, tone and tuning is very good. Way to go Martin M25 80/20s.
Comments about Martin M150 80/20 Bronze Round Wound Medium Acoustic Strings 10-Pack:
EUREKA! I have been looking for stings for my Martin HD-35 that bring out the bass yet don't muddy the treble. These bronze strings are superior in that respect to phosphor bronze. Phosphor bronze has a bright sound. The M150s have a warm, natural sound that perfectly matches the deep bass the dreadnaught was designed to project. I tried Elixirs, Martin SPs, and many other strings, but none can compare with these. I put the strings on and tune them to pitch, stretch them, then retune. They seem to never go out of tune after that. The M150s are great for bluegrass, country, contemporary Christian, etc., if you are using a pick (a Fender Heavy is a good choice) for the leads. If you are a rhythm player and primarily play chords, the projection is greatly enhanced. If you play fingerstyle, the bass response is incredible. I suggest you buy a set and try them. You won't be disappointed!

Peacemover, you either don't stretch your strings when you first install them, or there's something wrong with your guitar or tuning heads. I use these strings ALL the time and they NEVER go out of tune. I actually laugh when I see other guitarists tuning their guitars constantly. I tune right before I play, and I never have to touch the tuning heads again until the next time I play. Yeah, the strings don't last too, too long (esp. if you play a LOT), but how can ya beat this for the money?? Change 'em every month or so.
