For the past 15 years (or more) I have exclusively used Elixer strings on all of my acoustic guitars with good results, but recently it occurred to me that I shouldn't be single minded to the extent of using a particular brand of strings on all my acoustic guitars. I'm at the point of purchasing different brands of strings to experiment with on all of my guitars.
I'm not interested in opinions of which brand you think is best, but I am interested in reading any experimentation you may have done to find the best differing brands
to suit one or more of acoustic guitars you own. Every acoustic guitar is different.
Every manufacturer of strings claims it that their strings are the best, but I suspect that there might not be any truth to that unless the metallurgy varies.
My main acoustic guitar is an Alvarez Yairi DY55 made in 1980. 44 years old now, and aging, sounding as good or better than some of the acoustic guitars being produced lately by Martin and other manufacturers.
My goal is to read your stories.
