What strings do you recommend for this guitar?

Well, I use D'Addario Phosphor Bronze True Medium Gauge, but depending on how you play, you may want a heavier or lighter gauge.

This guitar only has the set of strings it came with and they may be or may not be the ones you need. We don't know that much about guitars. Thanks!

Yes, you can string this guitar with nylon strings. It is braced for steel strings, so you might not get the optimum sound out of it. Rule of thumb is this: you can re-string any steel string guitar with nylon strings. However, guitars braced for nylon strings (which provide less tension on the body and neck) may not be able to support the increased tension of steel strings. I hope this helps... Good luck and keep on rockin'!!

You could use whatever your favorite strings are for a classical guitar. It's a standard neck. I never got that far with it. It wasn't what I was looking for. Not a Martin sound quality (didn't expect much from the small body) but mainly it was too heavy/bulky to be useful for me.

I don't know what kind of strings but they are decent. If you are new to the guitar, you will probably want to replace them with some light gauge 'silk and steel' strings, which will be easier on your fingers.

They are great strings for any acoustic guitar. I would go with the EXP10 extra light for a beginner. They will be a little easier on the fingers.

tuning up on standard guitar strings is dangerous, I recommend you get custom gauge strings, that sounds complicated but it's simple enough for you to figure out. hopefully you know you need a smaller string for a higher note at the same tension.

Not sure the brand, but they seemed to be cheap. Best to replace with quality strings. In fact, I highly recommend having a tech do a setup on this guitar. Usually runs around $75 and well worth it. As a mass-produced guitar, the factory really does not pay attention to detail and a setup will get the strings adjusted the way you like them, plus you can replace them with the type of strings you like.

It's a classical guitar so it doesn't have a truss rod and thus cannot handle the tension of steel strings. Use nylon strings.

As I mentioned in my review. The guitar comes strung with Gibson Masterbuilt .012 to .053 gauge strings.

Yes. I think D'Addario strings are the best for acoustic guitars. Especially these coated ones. A little bit easier on the fingers for a new player.

Check the Martin website - the "care & feeding" booklet will tell you which strings work best on your particular guitar - I use Martin or d'Addario light

Hi Bennison, I personally have finally settled on th EJ26-3d strings. They are a custom light .011-.052 and are a little easier onthe fingers while still giving you a full fat sound.

First it is a very nice guitar with a very good electric sound but no acoustic sound. Yes, the guitar comes already stringed with basic nylon strings but I replaced mine with Aquila Alabastro Superior Chitarra Classica strings. The guitar does not come with care or maintenance manual. Any standard classical guitar strings will fit the guitar. Another user suggested Savarez 500CJ strings as a perfect fit for the guitar. I plan to try them next time I replace my strings.

You're not going to damage it. Those are standard strings. I use them with all of my guitars. Trust me, you're good. If you want to ask me some questions about getting started, post your email in a response and I will happily guide you through it.

I would recommend Elixir strings for any acoustic guitar. They're a little more expensive but are well worth it. They do last longer, play a little easier and reduce string talk in a way no other string I've tried comes close.

It being a Martin guitar it comes strung with Martin strings. I currently have it strung with Dean Markley lights.
