Magma GA140 B 85 Acoustic Guitar Strings

Warmer. Richer. More You. The Acoustic Tone You Have Been Looking For.

The Magma GA140 B85 Acoustic Guitar Strings bring the warmth and depth of phosphor bronze to your acoustic guitar. The 85/15 bronze alloy is the preferred choice for players who want a fuller, more rounded tone with enhanced mid-range character — perfect for everything from soulful fingerpicking to energetic strumming.

Key Features

• .12 Gauge (Medium) — strong projection with comfortable playability
• 85/15 Bronze (B85) winding — warmer tone with enhanced mid-range and sustain
• Hexagonal steel core — precise intonation and tuning stability
• Corrosion-resistant treatment — extended string life in humid conditions
• Compatible with all standard acoustic guitars
• Complete set of 6 strings

Sound and Performance

The B85 alloy — 85% copper, 15% zinc — produces a noticeably warmer and more complex tone compared to standard 80/20 bronze strings. You get a rich low-end, smooth mids, and highs that are present without being harsh. This makes the GA140 B85 an excellent choice for fingerstyle playing, singer-songwriter performances, and any style where tonal warmth and sustain take priority over brightness. The medium gauge ensures enough tension for confident strumming while remaining responsive to lighter touch.

Build Quality and Durability

Each string is wound over a hexagonal steel core that locks the winding in place, preventing slippage and maintaining consistent intonation across the fretboard. The corrosion-resistant finish protects against sweat and humidity — a key advantage for players in India's varied climate conditions. Magma's manufacturing consistency means you get a balanced, even-feeling set every time, with no dead strings or tension irregularities out of the box.

Ideal For

The GA140 B85 is well-suited for beginner to intermediate players who want a warm, full acoustic tone without spending on premium strings, fingerstyle and singer-songwriter players who prioritise tonal depth and sustain, and guitarists upgrading from 80/20 bronze who want a richer, more nuanced sound character.

Why Magma GA140 B85 Stands Out

The 85/15 bronze formula is often found only in higher-priced string sets. Magma brings this tonal quality to an accessible price point without cutting corners on core construction or winding consistency. For Indian guitarists looking for a reliable, warm-sounding acoustic string that holds up through regular practice and performance, the GA140 B85 delivers genuine value. It is a straightforward upgrade from standard bronze strings with a noticeable difference in tone from the first strum.
