I need to change the E-String (1st) on my electric guitar, but I’m worried about what will happen if I put acoustic strings on it. Do they perform differently? Will it make my electric sound weird? Will the pickups not, well, pick up the vibrations from it?

How do i put strings on a classical guitar?

I just recently bought new Acoustic guitar strings. But when I opened the Package, I then realized that the Acoustic strings have the steel tips, and the little gauge thing at the end. On my classical guitar, there are 3 metal and 3 nylon (like most) but is it possible to have the newly-bought strings somewhat “altered” at my nearest music shop to suit my guitar need? OR could I do it myself?

What kind of guitar strings should I buy?

I’ve got an Ibanez dreadnought acoustic guitar and its time to change the strings, but I’m not into the strings I previously had; which were too tightly wound and hard on the fingers. What type of acoustic strings are medium gage, have a good, full sound, and aren’t very expensive? Thanks!
