I used to play guitar in High School but haven't played in 35 years. I am trying to relearn again. It was much easier in High School. A bunch of us kids would get together a couple times a week for a couple of hours and play and teach and learn from each other.
I have 2 guitars. I have a cheapo electric and a Yamaha acoustic. The strings on the electric is easier on my fingers. The strings on my Acoustic is tearing up my finger tips. Is there a good set of strings to use without losing my fingertips? |

I went to Guitar Center and told him what I wanted. He suggested Cleartones Coated mediums. I told him that I had a couple suggestions of the Elixir strings. He said the Cleartones would be better and if I did not like them he would exchange them for the Elixir's.
After changing the strings the guitar has a completely different sound. It has more of a "ring" to it. My finger tips are so sore I dont know if they are going to make a difference yet. |
