Hi
Just received an OM-40R. I love it, but clearly it needs a new set of strings.  Recommendations please? Thanks a bunch!

Nice guitar  :thumb

EJ24's
A Hebrew, under the Spell
Pain is a good thing

I really like DR Sunbeams
Larrivee D-04W VHS (Peruvian Walnut/Sitka)
Martin 000-28EC (EIR/Sitka)
Martin HD-28 v18 (EIR/Sitka)
Martin OM-21 Special (EIR/Sitka)

Stock strings (currently) are EXP-17s. 

If you play with a flatpick, I would stick with EJ-17 or EXP-17.

If you play mostly with bare fingers I would use EXP-16 or EJ-16.   Sunbeams are nice, but they always die too quickly for me.

I am very happy with GHS Silk & Steel lights on mine. Very easy on the fingers.

If you really require string recommendations may I suggest the Acoustic Guitar Forum. There you can get thousands and thousands of recommendations.
