Title: My New P-09 BZ Brazilian Rose Wood
Post by: TommyMax on April 21, 2006, 08:10:12 PM
I just bought this guitar a couple days ago, so far I'm loving it. Anyone else have one of these? Do medium strings sound any better?

I have a flamed maple and think mediums sound better on it.

I have a braz parlor (not a P-09). Mediums sound good on it.

Yes, we enjoy a good drool :WNK>

And mediums on a parlor is sublime.  Truly they beef up a parlor's tone, volume and sustain.  MYsatin rosewood parlor punches out the notes with D'Addario medium 80/20's.  Just punches the notes out of this little cannon.  Give it a try, you won't go back.

Satin Maghog/Spruce Parlour.  Medium 80/20s is where I landed.  Love em.

With a 24" scale I'll virtually guarantee mediums will sound better.  I wouldn't use anything else on one.

I just swapped from elixir lights to mediums on my P5 mahogony this weekend & already notice a huge improvement in low end sound.
