Extra Slinky Electric
Is it ok if I use Extra Slinky electric guitar strings on my acoustic guitar?
Im really have a hard time pressing down the strings....
I'm not 100% sure if it's a good thing to do, but I know a friend of mine has used electric strings on her acoustic guitar before when she was doing gigs and broke a string. She didn't have any spare acoustic strings so used an electric one instead. I think it was the high E she broke. It sounded fine for the night, but I couldn't imagine it sounding great with a whole set of electric strings. Acoustic strings are thicker, producing a heavier sound, electrics are light and I don't think they would sound too great on an acoustic.
As for damaging your acoustic, as I said I'm not 100% sure if it would or not. If your acoustic is hurting your fingers why don't you get its action taken down? It doesn't cost much and any good guitar store will do it for you no problem. Or maybe try extra-light acoutic strings instead of lights or mediums.
Hope this helps!
