StewMac tech advisors specify this set of 6 files to match Medium Gauge electric guitar strings (one file each in the following cutting widths: 0.010", 0.013", 0.016", 0.028", 0.035", and 0.046"). Match the file to the string gauge. Choose a file of the same size as the string, or no more than a few thousandths wider.
