Strings Dave Uses?

Post by Truereflections5 »

Hey all,

First off I wanna thank everyone that started this site, it rules. I have been using the original site for a while and this new updated site is amazing, the videos are so helpful. Anyway I wanted to know what strings Dave uses on his guitar. Everyone tells me something different. I figured you guys probably know.
Thanks,
JT

I just put D'Addarios on my guitar tonight and then read this post.... I love them! I was using Elixers before.. but the sound of D'Addarios are amazing... deeper and truer.. I think.

But our fire is bright
And in your eyes
I can see what is on my mind
You got me wild

I use Elixirs (either Poly or Nano ... I think I prefer Poly, but I keep going back and forth :))
