mike choice of acoustic strings

[the opeth affinity]

I ordered these for my yamaha Thomastik SB110 Spectrum Extra-Light Bronze Acoustic Guitar ... has anyone used them or have any opinion at all on these strings?

 

[GraveyardVision]

Never used them .. I use D'addario

 

[HoursOfDebt]

yes, D'addario for the win!

imho bronze strings usually sound like poo, and extra light strings lack fullness in their tone. I personally like medium Elixirs, but their a little pricey.

Once the coating on the Elixirs wears off, the string loses its tone.

Your right, I bought medium elixers for my Alvarez acoustic and they felt and sounded great at first. Been about 4 months and already feel different and don't sound as good.

If you play with any regularity, 4 months is a pretty long time out of a set of strings.

But, I am the pot, and you are the kettle.... I can't remember when I changed mine!

 

[Sheckles14]

Yeah, it's been a good 6 months since i changed mine. I use Ernie Ball's 10 gauge.

I use DR strings.
