Hopefully one of you guys knows the answer! I just recently bought an Am, std, JB. my question is. do you need special replacement strings? i noticed on the E string that it is tapered off where the string fits into the bridge. so do i need a tapered string? any help would be great! thank you!

thank for the input! I have never seen strings like this...its tapered to fit into the bridge saddle and right after the bridge saddle the string is a normal sized string 110 gauge.

are you talking about the fat part of the string not being on the saddle? If that is the case- if you get just regular strings you'll prob have to lower the saddles.
