String Set
Which string set to pick for replacing acoustic guitar strings?
Well I just bought a beginner acoustic guitar set.

I have no experience with acoustic guitars and somehow when my cousin came over to check it out he popped one of the strings off.
I have read that the strings are bad so I wanted to replace them anyway but don’t know which string set to pick.
any help please?
and if so instructional videos on how to replace them?
thank you.
Just go to your local music store and ask for some acoustic guitar strings
for a steel stringed guitar. Ernie Ball, D’Addario, Black Diamond, et.al.
make good strings. Personally, I’d stay away from flatwound or groundwound strings as they do nothing but kill the tone of a guitar (I had
a set on my first bass, it was a massive improvement when I switched to
roundwounds). I found several videos on You Tube showing how to change acoustic guitar strings, just go to You Tube, type in ‘acoustic guitar strings’ and there you go. The one I saw, the guy was a luthier/guitar tech, some of his info should be really handy.
