The Dean Markley Signature Vintage Bronze 12-String Light Set (09-46) is a premium, ultra-flexible string configuration meticulously engineered for 12-string acoustic guitars.
Utilizing Dean Markley’s iconic 1972 formula, these strings feature an outer wrap made of 85/15 Vintage Bronze (85% copper and 15% zinc) wound over a precision-drawn round core wire.
This specific gauge selection starts at an ultra-forgiving .009 on the high E, delivering the crisp, shimmering high-end chorus effect that 12-string guitars are famous for, without the punishing finger fatigue or excessive neck tension caused by heavier string sets.
Features
True 85/15 Vintage Bronze Alloy: Combining 85% copper and 15% zinc yields a rich, warm, and highly expressive acoustic tone. This metallurgical recipe is ideal for traditional acoustic rock, folk, roots music, and fingerstyle recordings, providing a slightly played-in, organic warmth with superior note definition.
Balanced Ultra-Light Tension (09-46): The scaled-down gauge profile exerts significantly less mechanical pull on your instrument's neck and bridge. This tension configuration is perfectly optimized for vintage or delicate 12-string acoustics, smaller-bodied concert models, and live players who want easier fretwork and smoother string bending.
Flawless Octave-Pair Articulation: Every primary string is perfectly matched with its corresponding octave or unison partner to provide clean string spacing and projection. This precise layout is essential for intricate studio track layering and complex chord strumming, ensuring that individual notes ring out distinctly rather than blurring together.
Smooth Fretting & Tactile Comfort: Designed with a smooth round-wound wrap wire that is exceptionally easy on the fingertips. This tactile responsiveness provides excellent playability for multi-instrumentalists, beginners transitioning to a 12-string format, and seasoned guitarists performing long, multi-set live gigs.
Enhanced Sustain & Tuning Stability: Precision engineering ensures the wrap wire grips the core uniformly, maximizing energy transfer from the string to the soundboard. It serves as the definitive replacement choice for singer-songwriters and gigging musicians who rely on deep, decaying acoustic resonance and reliable pitch retention under changing stage climates.
