MissouriPicker Posted October 12, 2013 Share Posted October 12, 2013 Martin--Clapton's Choice strings----I picked-up a couple sets of these for $2 per set at GC. I don't recall seeing them before and figure GC was just moving some stock that they didn't sell a lot of. Anyone ever used them or heard anything about them? The last thing I need is more guitar strings, but for the price I thought I'd try them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hall Posted October 12, 2013 Share Posted October 12, 2013 On the subjective point, they're good strings MP, but nothing really special. I used them for several years on a D41 that just seemed to sound best with them, re: they must like rosewood. But this year I put Pearse on that same guitar and it said ok to the change. They don't last long or anything really noteworthy from my point of view. Just another string. But, they are worth two bucks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vacamartin Posted October 12, 2013 Share Posted October 12, 2013 On an AGF thread about strings on a J-45, a responder said he'd found the "Claptons" just right for the Gibby! Think I'll give the set of lights I have a try! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MissouriPicker Posted October 12, 2013 Author Share Posted October 12, 2013 Thanks, folks. I may put them on my Dove tonight. Don't know how long the strings were on it before I got it. They still sound pretty good, but I'm just itching to try something new...lol....Worst case scenario is that I won't like them and I'll put on something else.

They sound OK, and seem fairly similar to MB PB's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EuroAussie Posted October 13, 2013 Share Posted October 13, 2013 Remember trying them a couple years ago and from what I recall they sounded good, but went dead very quickly in my case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
