I have a Little Martin on the couch that I noodle on incessantly. I've always used Elixir Acoustic Phosphor Bronze 10/47. But I've been using the same strings fro so long, I don't remember what the alternative was like so I'm looking to try something new. This guitar has a bit of a parlor guitar sound to it. It's the LXM model which is the laminate top (yes it's literally plastic) which I actually prefer because the wood top can have a bright twang to it.
So what strings would you expect to find on a parlor guitar in a studio?
What strings would someone put on a parlor guitar 50 years ago before they had "nanoweb" coatings and fancying winding machines?
I kinda like doing that 7th chord blues noodling thing so if the sound is a little rustic, that might be ok.
