Default String suggestions for Cocobolo dred with Adi top

Hello All,

I just acquired a dream guitar, a cocobolo drednaught with an Adi top. I usually play Curt Mangan 12-54 phosphor bronze strings, but I am in the experimental mood and wondered if anyone had any thoughts of strings to go along with this combo.

I am not a very good guitar player, but style wise I use a flatpick and sometimes fingers and can slip between Doc Watson, John Denver, Creeedence, and the Eagles with the pick and fingers style of playing

Any thoughts are appreciated.

CK

Love to see a picture of it next to that nice Martin Custom you have CK.

D'Addario Nickel Bronze 12-53's might be worth a try, I like them.
