Crunch Enhancer Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 Anyone know what the standard string gauge that the factory puts on DR500's? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GuitarLight Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 My DR-500 came with .12-.53 strings which are considered "Light gauge" I would recommend you stay with those or lighter if you wish. I use Elixir 80/20 nanoweb light guage strings on mine and I am VERY pleased with the sound. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what I'm gonna do for the time being, didn't feel like getting the stock setup out of whack just yet! Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bytor1958 Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 Would it better to use electric strings on this guitar because of the nanomag pick up?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meanstreak Posted October 1, 2013 Share Posted October 1, 2013 Nah, my brother likes to play leads and tried some electric 10's on his DR-500MCE but it sounds much better with acoustic 10's we both agree. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
