Want this question answered?
yeah i accidentally bought them for my warlock because they where the heaviest set in the store before i found out you could use bass strings and banjo strings and they worked just fine.AnswerYou can use acoustic metal strings, although they are heavy and might come up short. You cannot use acoustic nylon (gut) strings. The pickups rely on the metal string reacting with the magnetic field.
I do believe they were John Pearse medium gauge phosphor bronze strings on the acoustic. Which was a Yamaha red label something or other. hope this helps.
If you're looking for a brand called "harmony" or "Stella" guitar strings, you're not likely to be able to find them. But if you're looking for some strings that you can use on your harmony Stella guitar, you can use any acoustic guitar strings that you may want to use.
Apparently he uses the Rotosound Super Bronze strings on his acoustic guitars.
Guitar strings aren't seperated between electric and acoustic, the varieties are nylon, steel... etc.
You would use nyloon strings.

any acoustic strings you want , you can go with regular bronze strings to anything like say DR Zebra strings or whatever comes to mind. To keep the original sound of the guitar try 12-52 acoustic strings , if they are brownish in color they are made of bronze.

Awesome strings
using acoustic strings on an electric does not damage the guitar. tightening them too tight does. acoustic strings tend to be thicker than electric strings, so all you have to do is just tune lower to avoid putting too much stress on the neck. i just want to know why they use different materials to make them. ============ Answer No the strings are completely different. It would be much harder to play an electric even if for some reason you did put them on. And you definitely don't want to mix the two! ================ I'd be inclined to think that stringing thicker, shorter acoustic strings on an electric guitar would actually damage the electric guitar. It wasn't built to withstand that kind of string tension. The reverse can be done -- using electric strings on an acoustic guitar -- but you won't get a great deal of tone or attack. Great for a very easy-playing acoustic guitar for songwriting and low-volume playing, though.
Nylon strings are lower tension in comparison to steel strings and have a warmer tone than steel string, thus making steel strings higher tension than nylon with a brighter tone than nylon strings.
Bass strings are MUCH MUCH thicker. They use more metal to make and are also harder to make.
The term acoustic, albeit not neccessarily accurate, usually implies a guitar with steel strings, whereas classical implies the use of nylon strings. For playing almost all types of modern music, a guitar with steel strings is preferred.
