Want to ask about strings, maintenance, amps, mics, or comparisons of different guitars or any music equipment? This is for all threads related to music equipment.
my question is this - right now i have elixir lights on it, but i'm finding that they buzz a lot more than my old strings which were silk and steels - this is the first time i've put brass strings on, so is it all brass strings or the elixirs? also does anyone have any suggestions of what strings to put on that bad boy...i just bought elixirs because they were in the nice section and they came with a free T-shirt
I am going to go out and look at the 00016rGT probably tomorrow. A little different than yours but not much.Does it play good?
The buzzing.....is it like interference buzzing from the guitar or like string noise?
But I would suggust using Martin bronze lights. Its a martin guitar so it should work plus I use them now and there isnt much string noise like scratching and what not.

its probably because of the action being too low. does that guitar normally come with lights? if not, you wouldve had to adjust the truss rod.
silk and steel - were you using GHS?
and i dont think elixirs are brass... and by the way, elixirs are awesome

hmmm, im pretty sure the strings are bronze, not brass... and if you're having occaisional buzzing issues just switch to a higher gauge, i like diaddarrio mediums
