"D'Addario makes a semi-flat acoustic series called Flat Tops which I adore. I use the 13-56 sizing. Lots of tone meat without the zing of new strings and a lot less string sliding noise. The round sound of "dead" strings with plenty of sustain. Best of both worlds, imo."

That sounds like a great idea for both playability and acoustic volume. I'll have to try them next time on my bird or on one of my other acoustics.
Thanks

P.S.
Are we really ALL out of the band?
