I'm really tired of these questions.

just D'addarios on mine so far, composites, Ej30, but I'd like to try the palette. New strings today!

Thomastik strings on!

Well, I really like the feel of this ( Classic-N CR-127) set, especially the trebles, but soundwise it's far not that crisp like the D'addarios...

Let see how long they last...

Didn't love Daddario composites...

Savarez 520R (red cards) - sound a quite a bit better imo, but basses didn't last for me.

currently using Aranjuez Classic Gold, not as bright as either of the above, but gives the guitar an older world sound imo... maybe not for everyone, but I'm liking them.
