    80/20 12.5-55 Set

    Posted by Michael on 21st Dec 2025

    I discovered Curt Mangan strings a few years ago - wow, what an upgrade over the old standard Earthwoods. But I still struggled to get my J-45 to wake up. Finally landed on this "tweener" set and it was the Goldlox "just right!"

    80/20 strings

    I compared your strings against another handmade set and the Curt Mangan strings sounded more crisp and added volume to my Yairi. Some people have laughed at me when I have commented that certain guitars I have "don't like" sets of strings. But ... Some strings seem to open up a soundboard more than others, and it certainly happened with your strings.

    Really kind of a great in between gauge. 12s are slightly too light and 13s too heavy. These worked out great on my 30 year old Guild dreadnaught.

    CM 12.5-55 "Half Size" 80/20 Bronze Strings

    Posted by Tom Thrall on 19th Aug 2019

    These strings are absolutely perfect on my 1966 Martin D-18. Standard medium gauge (13-56) string sets were always just a bit too heavy, and light gauge (12-54) sets were always a little floppy. These "Half Size" strings feel just right under my fingers, and the the tone and sustain are excellent. After 53 years I've finally found the right strings!!
