I liked the Newtone archtop double-wrapped nickel 13's on my Eastman (essentially an AR805 converted from an MDC805). I would think those are easier to come by in your neck of the globe. However, last few string changes I've been using the Martin retro monel 13's and I like them even better. More volume and clarity. I just bought a set of Curt Mangan monel 13's to try next.
