    What Are Your Favorite EB Acoustic Strings

    I have a Tayor 814ce which came with Elixir strings with their Monoweb coating. I'm not a fan of the strings at all. They're too bright and tinny. When I bought the guitar, the salesman made a comment that many folks think the Taylors are too bright -- but he chalked that up to the Elixir strings and not the guitars themselves.

    Being a big fan of EB electric guitar strings, I want to try EB Acoustic strings. Which do you use and why? BTW, I added the comment about the Elixir strings on my Taylor because I'm hoping somebody has restrung their Taylor with EB strings and can give me your thoughts on the differences.

    Thanks!!!!

    My favorite set is the Acoustic Power Slinkys. They are much warmer sounding than the 80/20 Earthwood sets. Plus I love the sound of thick strings on acoustics.
