Strings for Two Voice Guitar (Piezo / Humbucker)

[jackvinil]

Hi there. I play a Godin Montreal Signature 2 voice Guitar. It uses Piezo and Humbucker Pickups. Since the hambuckers need steel strings to work, how would the Ernie Ball Aluminum Bronze Acoustic Guitar Strings work with them?

I wouldn't recommend the Aluminum Bronze strings for this guitar. It would work fine with the Piezo pickup, the the humbuckers are balanced for electric strings. Like all most acoustic strings, the wound string don't have magnetic windings - only the cores are magnetic. The result would be a set where the wound strings would sound too quiet compared to the plain strings. Electric guitar strings have magnetic cores and magnetic windings on the wound strings which provides a balanced signal from string to string. If you're looking for new strings to try on your guitar, check out M-Steel or Cobalt Slinkys.
