    Well usually ppl go for D'Addario or Martin or likes, but I wud suggest Elixir Phosphor Bronze. They last at least a year with regular 2 hours daily usage, while D'Addario etc. dont hold 3 months. And sound? U cannot find a competition there. U have my word about them. Price?? $15! Check out any local store or order from www.musiciansfriend.com They have a prety efficient delivery system, but dont know about international delivery times. Check out any major local store. Im sure u'll find em.

    A word of caution. Watch out for the G string. It breaks sometimes. Not often, but it happened a couple o times in our group. Handle with care. Peace
