My old guitar is a really cheap Indonesian Squire. I don't have a lot
of money to spend, unfortunately. I'm pretty certain that one was made
of plywood (or, the guitar companies are calling it 'hardwood' now) as
well.
I think I was using d'addario chromes on the other one. Maybe i'll
look into those for the new one. I realize i will not acheive
'vintage' good sounds with cheap equipment, but I'd like to try to get
close or even in the ballpark.

See this post in context.
