Glad I found this thread!
My first guitar was an FG335 that my parents bought so my sister and I could take lessons. When I graduated high school (1981) they bought me an Ovation Custom Balladeer and the Yamaha went to my sister.
Fast forward to this past spring when I FINALLY talked her into selling me my Yamaha back. I had forgotten how good that guitar sounds and how much I like playing it.
Two questions:
My plan is to use this guitar as my "strummer" and am thinking about putting medium gauge strings on it.
1) What do you have for string suggestions?
2) I'd also like to add a pickup. Can you share any thoughts, ideas and experiences with pickups and/or pre-amps?
