[2009-06-01 14:44:38]

Q: My guitar strings are like seven years old. I have to change them. I checked online and they mostly only have strings for the Martin brand. but can you use those strings for any other acoustic guitar? and if i use them will my guitar sound better?

A: It depends on the type of guitar you have and what kind of sound you are looking for. It you want a lighter sound and easier on your fingers, try using electric guitar strings (5150) because they will simulate the feel of an electric guitar(more action)

If your hands hurt use strings with a lighter gauge, their easier on new fingers. Ask for 11 or 12 gauge strings when you go to the store.
