i am going to buy a acoustic electric guitar this week and i was wondering a couple things. Can i still use my electric guitar cable and amp for the A-E. Also, Can i use just regular acoustic strings, becuase i have seen acoustic electric strings at my local guitar shop and i am just about the buy a 10 pack of strings so i dont want to waste money if i can t use them. please respond asap. thxs alot in advance

I would think you'd be able to use your old electric guitar cable, as long as it fits it should transmit the same type of signal. As for guitar strings, you can use regular acoustic strings and they will work fine when you plug it into your amp, BUT, I just found some acoustic/electric strings online: http://www.zzounds.com/item--DRSZAE11 they are made specifically for Acoustic/Electric they are wound up with both Nickel for electric and bronze for acoustic all the way up the string, and the sound comes out nice and clean and crisp.

thxs a lot

yes you can use the same cable, and no dont use any other strings than ELIXER acoustic. Chris Martin and everyone else with half a brain knows that for acoustic's ELIXER makes the best strings around.

Elixer huh? I've heard of them but I've never tried them, I guess I'll have to make a trip out to my music store and pick some up! thanks
