Great on Guild D55
I picked up the guitar two years ago. My "starter" guitar is a 2013 Guild D55 ... which is really my guitar for life because I can't find an accoustic that sounds better. After two years, I replaced the strings. I tried light strings (sounded horrible) and medium coated strings (sounded better, but not great). I spoke with a guy at my local guitar shop and he recommended the Martin Clapton Choice Phosphor Bronze, medium, for the Guild. I put them on and boy was he right. I'm getting the deep, rich, clear sound that attracted me to the Guild in the first place. If you have a Guild D55 try these on your next string swap. You won't be disappointed.
Great Strings!!!
I get these in 13's, and they are huge and heavy but I tune them down to D#, and they sound so good.
