MarshallB Posted February 8, 2020 Share Posted February 8, 2020 I just bought a Gibson 2018 AG Parlor and was wondering what string choice to go with. I realize this is personal preference but hoped other members have experimented with different set ups. By the way, I absolutely love this guitar. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks People will tell you this wood is better with 80/20 or PB or Monels. Just try them all. I switch back an forth all the time and use 80/20 or PB. Never cared for Monel, but people do like them. Right now I've got 80/20 Martins on my guitars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zombywoof Posted February 8, 2020 Share Posted February 8, 2020 The first time I saw one of these guitars, I thought if this is what Gibson considers a parlor I would hate to see their idea of the new breed of jumbos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bozz Posted February 9, 2020 Share Posted February 9, 2020 Welcome and congrats on the new guitar. Strings I like and use most regularly on my guitars are Martin PB,'s, D'Addario EJ16's and Gibson Masterbuilt lights (until my stash runs out, as they are no longer being made). I have a small body non-Gibson that I use John Pearse 600L's on. But, as Sgt. Pepper said above, "try them all", until something resonates with you. There are a zillion choices out there and it is definitely a personal thing. Post some pic's of that new guitar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
