Hey,
I have to replace strings on both my acoustic and electric guitar, not that I have trouble with replacing the strings themselves but I was wondering if anyone could recommend a set of decent NPL strings for my electric and steel strings for my acoustic that are between£5-£15 per set.
I'm not familiar with brands of guitar strings or what's trustworthy/what isn't. Thanks for any help.
acoustic I use Martin mediums phosphor bronze. \

I'll give a hell yeah on the Ernie Ball strings. Pretty much the only brand I buy these days.

That's probably the best advice you're going to get on the subject.
Strings can be a personal preference thing.
Myself, I'm still experimenting. I haen't found some that I absolutely hate yet (though Squire Bullets come close), nor have I found some that I can't live without.
Most have been acceptable.
