As far as ABGs go, I cannot tolerate the bright phosphor strings. Too much finger noise and way too twangy. I prefer light gauge flats or tapewounds for less stress on the soundboard. Be sure, especially with the tapes, that they can fit through the bridge if that is how they are installed on your bass. The acoustic basses with the big bridge pins are not usually a problem for thick tapewounds, but you might need to enlarge the slots in the nut. My current acoustic bass is a Carvin AC40 fretless with Fender tapes. Sounds wonderful.

Good advice I hadn't thought about strings fitting an acoustic style bridge. Nice guitar you have there. I have only ever seen it in pictures.
