I bought a 10-pack last year and am pleased with the sound and quality. These light strings are easier on the finger tips and I disperse them to my students.

Great on any guitar

The Martin m540 is the only acoustic guitar string I will use. I play in my church worship band so I play minimum of twice a week (usually about 4-5 hours a week). These strings hold up very well, In the three years I have been playing this guitar with these strings I have broken only two strings. After about three weeks of playing I do change them as they begin to sound less bright. I have played Elixir strings on this guitar and I can't tell that they retain the "new sound" any longer than the martin 540's. You simply can't find a better string at any price.

May be better than light Martin SPs

If these Martin Strings last longer than the SPs, and come in a 10-pack, I might as well stick to these, besides the Medium gauge string sets.

I play a Gibson Hummingbird and I've tried numerous brands of strings over the last 7 years, but any store I go to, it's gotta be Martin Lights. Some people complain about strings going "dead" yeah, well, these don't. When you first put them on, they sound beautiful and crisp, and after a few months of playing they are a little less striking, but the sweet, sweet sound doesn't go away. I've had a set of Elixir nanowebs on my guitar and they didn't last as long, nor did they sound as good. Indubitably, the best.

I really love these strings. I put them on my acoustic and it really brought her to life. They have great sound, feel, and sustain to them. They even look awesome. Great strings, I recommend them.
