Dodger11 Posted February 21, 2014 Share Posted February 21, 2014 Folks I might have asked this before but what do you think is the right gauge to string an EJ160e acoustically? Checking the Epi string gauge pdf it says it comes string with electric 11s - at the minute I have mine strung with Elixir lights which are 11s (I think!). Has anyone tried medium 13s on this guitar? Do you think I would need to tweak anything for a heavier gauge? thanks in advance have a great weekend! Dodger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cliffmac Posted February 21, 2014 Share Posted February 21, 2014 If it came with lights then the truss rod might need tweaking with meds. on it. There are so many options out there for strings do some research buy a bunch and do your own comparison, I've settled on Gibson Masterbuilt lights.

Morkolo Posted February 22, 2014 Share Posted February 22, 2014 If you do a lot of bending you might need your nut touched up to make the jump to 13s. Myself I'm a fan of Elixir Phosphor Bronze 12s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
el capitan Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 I wouldn't use mediums. I'd try Martin light (54-12) or other makers medium lights (also 54-12) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
