Silk and steel construction
A steel core sits beneath Italian silk filament and silver-plated copper winding.

Independent shopping perspective
Built for a 12-string acoustic in C tuning, the 710-12 combines a steel core, Italian silk filament, and silver-plated copper winding. Its lower tension sets it apart from standard steel, bronze, and brass-wound options, giving fingerstyle players a softer feel under the hand. The heavy-gauge set is a focused choice for players using the C-tuned 12-string approach rather than a general-purpose acoustic restring.
