Many musicians with electric-acoustic guitars wonder what is the ideal type of strings to use on their instruments. Should you use electric guitar strings or acoustic guitar strings? David Zanoni of Da-Vez Music has found the answer. DR makes strings specifically for electric-acoustic guitars. They are called DR Zebra strings and were designed to improve acoustic sounds AND electric sounds for all acoustic/electric guitars. DR winds phospher-bronze plated steel wire side-by-side with 8% nickel plated steel wire. Phospher-bronze brings out the acoustic tones of your guitar. Eight percent nickel plated steel is designed to increase the response of a piezo pickup in the bridge, or a magnetic pickup mounted in the soundhole, as well as the pickups in the archtop guitars. Well, enough of this technical talk. You have to hear the strings to appreciate them. It is also important to note that DR strings are high-quality and last much longer than most other brands. Look for Zebra electric-acoustic guitars strings at Da-Vez Music (an Ebay store) and get the optimal sound quality from your electric-acoustic guitar.
