What does "silked" mean?
Looking at the description, I wasn't sure if it had "silk" threads underneath the wrap wire. On the Martin website, "silked" seemed to refer to the windings at the ball end. I took a string apart and, indeed, it is a true silk and steel. I'm using them on a very old Gibson flat top with many repaired cracks. Also, my hands seem to be degrading where normal strings are too high tension.
Most Liked Negative Review
Worst strings that I have ever tried.
These strings were dead out of the package, The G string was unbearable I removed the strings immediately after putting them on my guitar. .

These strings gave my guitar a fresh new look and completely changed the sound of the guitar. I can play more fingerstyle music much easier now knowing itll sound just that little bit better.
