Unique 49+ Dreadnought Acoustic Guitar Strings. A steel string gives a larger and more resonant sound compared to a nylon string. Im getting a bit tired of those mediums strings on my dreadnought and i just whant to know if some of you are verry satisfied with light strings on his dreadnought , and does it make a big difference in the sound?? About 16% of these are guitar, 0% are stringed instruments parts & accessories.
