I'll use 42,32,24 on one build, and 16,11,9 on the next ... This ensures I get 2 builds from one set. It also makes me build slightly different instruments.
Nothing worse than mass-producing the same old thing over and over again just because Leo and Les did it. :-))
I've built 8 and I just tried 17, 20, 24 steel strings. Not yet sure if I like them or not, but it was the suggestion of my local music shop guitar guy musician. In the past I just used light electric stings because they were on sale for $2.00 a pack.

Hi. I wanna ask a basic question about strings.
Do we use the 3 thinnest string of standart acoustic guitar strings for 3-string cbg? Or are there special strings just for cbgs?
