     Tension - Classic guitar strings are made in a different strain. They are: low voltage is also referred to as moderate or mild tension, normal or medium, hard or high voltage.
     The strings Materials - Materials strings will have a big impact on the acoustic sound color (timbre) that we want. Let the sound color into 3 alone, mellow (more bass sound color, usually freq harmonics are contained in the mid freq freq up LOQ), bright (color shrill voice, freq dominant harmonics in high freq), and brilliance (color balanced sound, bright and mellow). Some acoustic steel string material that we encounter are as follows:

     - 80/20 Bronze: Strings is widely used by guitarists. Sounds more bright colors. Suitable for songs that need a shock, cheerful memorable songs.
     - Phosphor Bronze: Strings is a favorite for those who like to solo. Sound color brilliance. Suitable for solo fingerstyle songs are more picking and tapping the strings.
     - Silk Steel: color more mellow sound. suitable for jazz tunes and songs that need a mellow impression.
     - Flat Tops: mellow sound color, a little bright in strings 1 and 2. Typically used for songs that need gentle sound like jazz for example. Thus strings such as nylon but made of steel. Fingernoise enforce feel if using these strings.

     There are also other terms like bronze alloy, vintage bronze strings etc on other brands, but the color of the resulting character does not sound much different from the others mentioned.

     coated

If yes depleted layer will rust as well, but the strings will last longer than the original sound rust resulting strings will last a long time. Coated strings with us that the room is suitable for damp too easy sweaty fingers.
     Size Strings - There are various sizes of guitar strings available in the market. For acoustic guitar we often make the term "small string", "strings being", and "big string". Strings with larger sizes usually produce louder sound (the volume is greater) and better sustained (long sound) it. But on the other side of the large size of the string will be sore for at-bending for those not used and for which his somewhat soft (usually a girl).
     Well, strings of small size also has weaknesses. Although it is easy to be bending strengths and also do not make finger pain for new learning guitar. The main drawback is the small strings, for those not used to perform bending, sometimes there is excess over tone or tones. That is, there is the possibility of a "bend" the strings are too excessive so that the resulting tone is not in accordance with the desired tone.


     So, when choosing the strings, choose tension, material, and size appropriate to the needs of the songs that we play or genre that often we play. The easiest way to distinguish the character string that we need is to try these strings strings so we know what we need for the song you want to play.
