I seldom played my acoustic guitar which has Elixir medium gauge (.013 to .056) acoustic strings on it, because it's so hard on my fingers and its sound is low & dull.
Now, I play it every day. The sound is bright & clear. Best of all, it doesn't hurt my fingers at all. I like it!
If playing with medium elixirs hurt your hands, your guitar is probably not properly set up. I have medium elixirs on 2 of my Taylors...both have a great set up and require very little down pressure all the way up the neck.
