Question:
I just bought a new guitar and its about time to swap out the strings.
So that I don't mess up the existing setup I want to stick with the
same size strings that are currently on it. How do I determine what
gauge they are?

Answer:
I just bought a new 12 string guitar and had the same
problem. The music
store told me what came on the guitar so I just bought another set like
them. If you can't get this information, get a set of
calipers and measure the diameter of each string and then go to a music
store and look on the back of the string packages. The diameters are
usually listed there.
If still in doubt, try light gauge. Also: Check out
