guitar strings
What type of guitar strings are best for a beginner on an acoustic guitar?
i was given a guitar for my birthday and I have streel strings. my mom said that nylon strings would be easier to learn on, but will that affect the way my guitar sounds?
what are the best kind of strings?
A steel string acoustic guitar is designed and built to use steel strings and to sound best with steel strings.
The problem with putting nylon strings on an acoustic guitar is that its difficult to install them. There are little metal balls on the ends of steel strings. You stuff the ball ends of the strings into holes into the acoustic guitar’s bridge and anchor them in place with bridge pins. Nylon strings don’t have little metal balls on the ends — they’re made to be tied on to the bridge of a classical guitar — so putting them onto a steel string acoustic is tough.
No matter whether you start out learning on nylon or steel strings, its going to be painful for the first few weeks as your fingertips get used to pressing the strings down and develop callouses.
Keep the steel strings on your guitar.
