What strings to use on my new Ozark resonator?
Ok well I bought a resonator guitar from a local music shop, put a deposit on it, and I’m picking it up tommorow, as I’ve never owned a resonator guitar before I don’t know what strings to ask for?!
I’ve been playing guitar on a regular acoustic/electric for about 4 years and play almost nothing but Chicago style blues with a bit of jazz in there, so I need strings that’ll allow me to slide (with fingers, not slider) very easily, like normal steel strings (I’m used to gauge 12). But I also want to learn delta style slide guitar (my reason for buying a resonator) so I want strings that are friendly to regular EADGBE blues, give a nice full loud tone, are good for both finger picking and using a pick, and that can also be used well with a slide. However my blues aren’t too bendy so that’s not an issue.
So if you know of some magical strings that match all my criteria please leave a response!
Thanks alot, Sam.

Is this Resonator guitar decent at best?
Im not trying to get an expensive guitar but one that sounds decent. I have a choice between two guitars. 222 by first act ( the acoustic) and a Resonator Guitar. The resonator I cant find a brand name for it anywhere. I really want the resonator or a resonator in general. Not for jazz though. I dont want to play it with a glass slide but like you would with a normal acoustic. Its a roundneck and 22 fret guitar. But the lack of a brand name found anywhere disturbs me. If some could give me insight on the brand or its quality I would feel better. Heres the link to the unnamed resonator.
