Overview

Not a bulk pack or a larger-count set, this is a plain six-string Marquis set in phosphor bronze with bridge-friendly silk at each ball end. The finish is bronze plated and the sound is balanced.

A straightforward replacement set with bridge protection and a light feel is the offer. The limitation is detail, as the gauges are not listed and the warranty reads not applicable.

Who it's for

Players restringing a single acoustic who like a balanced voice and a lighter feel. Those wanting a specific gauge chart or a multi-set pack should look elsewhere.
