Are extra light acoustic strings good to use?
I've been experimenting with strings the past few years and I've noticed that the Martin MSP4000 Phosphor Bronze Extra Light Acoustic Guitar Strings (It says SP with a green background on the package) have been working out for me. I've tried lights and meds, and I found the extra lights very comfortable (come on, they're light like an electric guitar). Do you know anyone well known who uses the same gauge? What are the pros / cons to using them?
Any other suggestions for strings?
I dunno who uses them, but the advantage as you said is that they're very easy to play on. The disadvantage is the lower volume. But if it feels and sounds good to you, stay with it. It's about your preference.
"Heavier gauge strings are preferred by guitarists who like to have a louder guitar sound. These strings, due to their thickness, also tend to “hold their note” better and longer, and the guitar tends to stay in tune longer because the strings are more difficult to bend while playing. Although this sounds appealing, one disadvantage to heavier gauge strings is that they can cause a lot of stress on the neck and body of the guitar, especially older, more fragile instruments. In fact, some guitar stores will not even sell heavier gauge strings because of this potential danger.
"Light gauge strings are preferred by guitarists who like to alternate their tunings and bend their notes while playing. Because the strings are lighter, they place much less stress on the neck of the guitar and reduce the threat of damage when tuning up or down or bending a note during a solo. They are also easier to form chords with, as you don’t have to press as hard on the strings to make contact with the fretboard. However, these strings will not be as loud as heavier strings, can break more easily, and frequently fall out of tune due to their lack of body, which some guitarists find annoying.
"Medium gauge strings are a good mix of the two and along with light-gauge are probably the most popular types of strings. They are heavy enough to provide volume while playing, but light enough so that they provide minimal stress on the guitar and are easy to manipulate while playing."
