Ah, thanks dudes. All she needs now is a name and a bit more time under my fingers ?
X-rated Bob wroteWhat strings are you putting on? There are different compounds for acoustic strings and they do differ in sound. 80:20s don't sound the same as Phosphor Bronze. So you may experiment a little, or you may want to ask at the music shop you deal with. Changing compounds or gauges may effect the setup as well.
Get a humidifier!
I put on Elixir 13s; I was so giddy at Music Connection that I'm not sure if they were 80:20 or phosphor bronze, but there's no coating so they're definitely not nanos or polys. (Sorry if my terminology sucks, I haven't played in a good few years.)
The sound is a tad bright so I'm looking at something with a little less treble: would nanos do the job? And are Elixirs the best option or should I look at D'Addarios, etc?
And Bob, how important is it for me to get a humidifier? I stay in the northern Jozi suburbs so would it only be necessary for winter or should I be using one year-round?
