      Hi Scott,              On Sat 2039-Apr-02 12:40, Scott Brown (1:261/220) wrote to All:              SB> I have a acustic Greg Bennit guitar and was wondering what a good       SB> string size would be for playing the blues?              DOn't know about the sizes, but the standard gauges they use for the different       strings in a set of Martin Marquis lights       seems to work well for me for a variety of styles of music,       with a variety of guitars over the years. Have used them on my current       Martin, an old Ovation copy; an Alvarez 6, their       12 string set on an Alvarez 12, an old Guild and some       others.       My ex son-in-law trying to be cool got me a set of Diadeerio (spelling) for       Xmas one year, but think I gave them to       somebody else, as they're more suitable for electric imho.       But the Marquis lights are fairly good. They're standard       gauge steel strings, but they hold up well. THey're also       even enough to bend etc. so they should serve you well.              Regards,        Richard       --- timEd 1.10.y2k+        * Origin: (1:116/901)    |
