sjs,
Try this suggestion one time, and if you don't like them, forget it. But I think you'll be blown away. I had a D30 that I loved, but never gave me the sound that blew me away. I took a shot and spent a bunch of money on 3 sets of Thomastick Plectrums just trying new strings. The D30 was the only maple guitar I owned at the time, with all the others being rosewood and mahogany. The D30 came to life, and just like that, became one of my favorites, So I took the Plectrums and put them on a couple of rosewood guitars, and YUK! I couldn't stand the sound of the rosewood with the Plectrums. But on the maple? Just absolutely beautiful, and like no other string I'd played on the D30.
Buy a set just for the heck of it, and let me know what you think. I think they are miraculous on maple.
