Can someone tell me about guitar strings!! I need your help!!!!!!?
So far, I’ve been using the same strings but a friend told me that there are different gauges for strings. I don’t get what gauges are. Which gives the better sound quality? Also, are Martin guitar(acoustic) strings well made? Please tell me which guages works very well with acoustic guitars. Give some well known brands that lasts and sounds excellent.
I want a deep sound and resonating sound for my acoustic. Does thinner strings have less sound quality? Iv played for 3 years.
Ok first off, gauges are just a fancy word for the thickness of the strings, the gauges will come in numbers by the millimeter(mm) such as .54mm.
Thicker strings get you a heavier and generally warmer tone but another thign that also adds to how the strings sound are the maker and what they’re made of.
Acoustic guitars have a wide range of gauges and they ALL work and sound great, its all preference or basically how you prefer your guitar sound.
If you want the warm resonant tone that you’re looking for I’d suggest heavier gauges such as those that are labeled as “medium” or even “light” will work but again thicker strings deeper tone.
I have tried brands from d’addario to Martin to Dean Markley Blue Steels to Elixers.
Alot of peopel are gonna tell you Elixer is the way to go but one they are expensive and two they are probably gonna eb too bright for your tastes.
I recommend d’Addario’s Phosphorous Bronze lines, because while they are a little bright they have a very nice depth to them.
If you have the extra cash go for The EXP Phosph. Bronze by the same company.
For these two go for the “Medium” guage, it’ll say that on the package.
If not these try Dean Markley Blue Steels. Also a nice choice.
One other thing to keep in mind, that warm rich tone your looking for cannot be achieved by only simply changing strings. Unfortunately the better the guitar’s craftsmanship and wood are the better tone you’re gonna get, if you have a bgeinner’s guitar, theirs gonan be a strict limit to how “warm” of a sound your gonna get. Go to a local music store and try some expensive guitars and you’ll hear the difference immediately, you’ll feel it to, the craftsmanship between a 1500 dolalr guitar and a 100 dollar guitar is mind blowing.

Shortening the string produces a note with a higher pitch, lengthening it lowers the note. The vibration of the string… |

6 & 12 String Guitar $9.32 For decades, Leo Kottke would inspire generations of fingerpicking acoustic guitarists (and help pave the way for New Age and contemporary instrumental music), but this 1969 album is the one that started it all. Kottke’s brilliant debut was released, fittingly, on John Fahey’s Takoma label. Showing the influence of Fahey himself (and Takoma labelmate Robbie Basho), Kottke performs impossibly diffi… |
