Coated 12 string guitar set saveds my sound!
5 Stars

After a long search for a more traditional set of 12 string guitar strings, I found Mangan. On an equal footing with my former go-to set for 12 string! Will get back regarding string life and sound.

Longest lasting heavier gauge 12-string set
5 Stars

Choices are basically nil for "long-lasting" 12-string sets heavier than .010-.047 inch. I tune my 1989 Seagull S12 guitar down to C#. Typical 010-.047 inch sets are too floppy, and anything heavier than .011-.052 inch is harder to fret on a 12-string acoustic guitar. My fingers are so acidic that untreated strings start tarnishing after a few hours. This coated .011-.052 inch set lasted me over four months before showing any degradation!
