Nickel Strings are typically reserved for electric guitars and so I was recently surprised to come across a set of Nickel Martin Monel strings that are actually made for acoustic. This video will serve as a comparison so you can make the decision for yourself - which is better: Phosphor Bronze or Nickel acoustic guitar strings? These nickel strings were allegedly the preferred choice of bluegrass legend Tony Rice and so I thought I'd give it a shot. I ended up really liking them - the nickel strings tend to sound a bit warmer with more sustain, less pick noise, and a slightly reduced front to the note.
