Pride is the presumption that we can be happy without depending on God as the source of our happiness and without caring if others find their happiness in God. Pride is the passion to be happy contaminated and corrupted by two things: 1) the unwillingness to see God as the only fountain of true and lasting joy, and 2) the unwillingness to see other people as designed by God to receive our joy in Him. If you take the desire to be happy and strip away from it God as the fountain of your happiness, and people as the recipients of your happiness, what you have left is pride. Pride is the pursuit of happiness anywhere but in the glory of God and the good of other people.

Best Strings For Transducer Bridge Electric

Hi All,

Hope you all had a good summer.

I've got a Godin XTSA electric with a transducer bridge, so it can play
electric and "acoustic" simultaneously, with separate outputs for each.
It can sound really great on the acoustic side with the right strings,
but I've been finding strings to be hit and miss. I've had a few sets of
EXP110's on it, but the last couple have tended to sound really jangly,
even after a pro re-setup.

Anyone out there have experience with an electric with a transducer
bridge (Fender Deluxe, Parkers, etc), that can suggest the best and most
reliable strings to get a nice consistent acoustic sound. The electric
side is pretty forgiving with whatever strings I put on, so that's not a
huge issue. It also has built in synth tracking, but I use it very
rarely, so it is also not at issue.

By the way, the versatility of this guitar setup is absolutely made for
leading/playing worship, in case anybody might be considering a new
purchase in the future.

Thanks,
Stacy
