Default Webber strings question

Does anyone know what strings David Webber used on his guitars? I have a new Webber, like the sound of the strings, but don't know what brand/composition/gauge they are.

Can't say, but I've owned a Webber OM Cedar/EIR since 1998. Strings are a personal choice. I've tried a lot of different strings but keep coming back to Elixir PB Nanos 12-53.

I'm pretty sure he shipped them with EJ16's for a long time - when you pull them (or you can look inside with a mirror) if they have multi colored grommets on them, they are the D'addarios.

The use to come to my buddy's shop with Elixer Nano PBs. You might ask the shop that you got if from if they had restrung it. I like Pearse Phosphor Bronze on my Englemann/Australian Blackwood Jumbo Shrimp. OMMV

I use John Pearse phosphor bronze strings on my baritone guitar, as well.
