To me the answer is - only you can tell. Many, many.....many people use light strings on GS Minis and love it. Your experience may, or may not, be the same. It's a short experiment and will cost you around $25 - if you decide to immediately switch back. Fortunately, this is the same procedure for every guitar owned by every guitar player. The first thing I do with new guitars is to experiment with the 6 or 7 different string sets that I like on various guitars and judge whether any of them sound, TO ME, better than the stock strings. Then the result of that experiment becomes the new baseline for that guitar. Have fun experimenting.
