Rarely have I a guitar "high strung" since a decent 12 string suits my needs better, but when I do it's strung with the 6th and 5th and 4th strings up one octave. I don't like the 3rd string up one octave 'cause it doesn't suit my ears when used with swing chords and rhythms. If I was to leave a guitar high strung I'd switch out the nut.

6th is .030, 5th is .023, 4th is .017 unless I'm trying to use up odds and sodds of strings in which case something close will do. The 1st, 2nd and 3rd strings are standard light guage.

Peace, Mooh.
