Now I have this Cort axe im not entirley sure what strings to load it with. I bought an ernie ball "custom gauge" .009 when i snapped the high E string and it seems pretty good. Would these EB custom gauge strings be a good idea for replacing the E, B and G strings? Also, what gauge would suite the guitar best? I want to stay fairly light as im a bit of a solo feind thanks You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick. Plus all our lessons are packed with free content!
