Re: [Acoustic Guitarist Guild] Beginning Guitarist

Thank you for your response. The information will really help and is greatly appreciated!! Do you think moving to a lighter string will take a way from the learning process. Such as stonger fingers?

         You can certainly drop to a lighter string (11's or even 10's) that will make it a bit easier to play, but you will give up a bit of sound by doing it.   I play D'Addario Phosphor Bronze and have been very happy with them.   Also, remember that as you play your finger tips will become hardened and it will get better/easier. ...   Good luck...!         Bud

Hi... I just started playing the acoustic guitar. I'm moving along at a slow rate but I'm getting better. I was wondering if anyone would know what's a good string to use. I have a lauren acoustic guitar. Im not fimilar with what gauge is better. My strings are super hard and I'm having a hard time pushing them down. Would it benefit me as a beginner to have a string that's easier to push down. Or stay with the strings I have now?
