I would assume they are meant for an electric 12 string, given the nickel construction.

But no harm in trying, if you wish to do so!

I have used them on my electric 12-string guitars, and I like them in that regard, but I've never tried them on an acoustic.

ive used the round core DR sunbeams on my guild 6 strings. wont use anything else on those. The round core strings seem to ring on the guilds. And i have used pearse nickle wound on my 12 strings, great sounds. So was just curious as to a flat wound ,round core ,nickle wrapped string, on an acoustic.
Thanks for the input.
