Thanks - the reason I ask is that I'm going through string trials on my Godin 5th Avenue right now. Nowhere near a match for the Eastman, but we all have to start somewhere.
A set of GHS nickel-wound electric guitar strings (.012-.052 or thereabouts) is on it at the moment. Before that, I had Elixir Nano PB mediums on it - best acoustic sound so far, but they didn't work well with the mag pickup I installed. The GHS set sounds much better amplified, and also seem to have more 'archtop character' acoustically.
I have a set of D'Addario Chromes to try next...
