   Lighter gauge strings are easier to play, but they wear out faster. Is it a classical acoustic, or a regular one? Classical uses the nylon strings, these are very easy to press, so any gauge should be fine. Since you’re a beginner, using a heavier gauge might be recommended so you don’t break strings often. For a regular acoustic, lighter gauges are recommended since you’re a beginner, you’ll have an easier time pressing them down (or, if you want to make yourself really good, get the heavy gauges so you can build up strength in your fingers).

   Also, remember to pick up extra high E strings, they tend to break most often.
