The Korena take

Martin MA500FX Flexible Core is a light-gauge phosphor bronze set for 12-string acoustic guitar. Its high-tensile-strength core wire and high-quality wrap wire are paired with the Flexible Core design, which emphasizes a soft feel, control, and reduced finger fatigue. That makes it a practical choice for 12-string fingerstyle work and note bends when you want the handling focus of Martin’s Flexible Core construction in a light-gauge set.
