I always struggle with the strings of my acoustic guitar because Im so used to playing an electric guitar. So I've looked online on where to buy a super light tension acoustic guitar strings and I've found one. It's the D'Addario EZ890 Super Light Acoustic Strings.
It's really nice, made a big difference to the tension of my Fender DG60CE and the sound is also very good. You will find it a bit odd though that the third string is also steel and not round wound. Also it's super light that you think you are using an electric guitar. It might sound a bit thin if you are use to gauge 10 strings. But apart from that, it's a lovely set of strings.

Here's the quick overview of the pedal. It's a very simple-to-use multieffects pedal. Just two pedals; up and down to change effects. Editing is straight forward, using the edit button which are left and right. Then another set of buttons left and right to change values and also acts as your master volume. Then a store button to save patches. Use up and down foot pedals to scroll location on where you'd like to save your patch. It has built-in tuner and you can activate it by simultaneously pressing the two foot pedals and hold for 2 seconds. To activate bypass mode, just press the two foot pedals simultaneously, like a quick tap only. Just watch the videos below for a quick run through of the pedal.
