Subject: RE: strings for dadgad tuning
You won't get heavies in your average shop. But you can get them on the internet. However, you ain't going to want to put them on a flat-top and tune to E. If you want to tune to D or C or a related tuning then you need to consider where the core sound of your guitar is. Take the strings off and sing into the soundhole and listen for the notes that resonate.
