Which guitar strings should I buy? Guitar strings like many of the best things in life do not last forever. In fact, to keep your instrument playing in tune and sounding the best they will need to be changed regularly. It's arguable but I’m not sure there is a better feeling than the first chord on a new set of strings. Tonally it is when the guitars you love sound the best. I am of the opinion that old and dead strings and even sub-par strings will hinder you as a player. As the strings you play are a tool of musical expression they should be at their best as much as possible.

Now here is the tricky question, which guitar strings are right for you? Guitar strings come not only in different sizes, but every manufacturer uses a different blend of metals to create their product. Some even come with a protective coating on them to extend their life. You will find that there is no right or wrong as to which strings you may end up preferring. In this article I will discuss what I believe are some of the best choices available to you today.
