Taylor Acoustic & Electric Guitars / Re: Why did Taylor switch from Elixir strings to D'Addario?

Maybe not ideal, but you could buy a 10-pack each of mediums (EJ17) and lights (EJ16) then mix & match your own homemade HD lights. You'll end up with ten sets of "bluegrass" gauge strings, ie: medium basses and lighter trebles. Then have your nearest bluegrass buddy buy those ten hybrid sets from you. Agreed that it would be best if they had your preferred set(s) in the catalog, though.

Some years ago I found I liked using the HD Light gauge sets of strings {.013 - .053} on many of my six string guitars. Gave a little pop to the trebles and reduced the boomy bass of my Jumboes/Grand Orchestra. Especially in the spruce over rosewood models. Jumboes tend to have a balanced sound, and that gauge can help a lot.
Any chance D'Addario will be making that gauge in the future?
Be well and play well,
