@eyesquash this looks like it wants steel strings.
Stella was an inexpensive brand, so keeping one in good shape over the long term is going to be challenging. I'd get the absolute lightest strings you can find and hope the neck doesn't go bad.
(It's possible the neck has a built in back bow - this was sometimes a way to prevent the action from going sky high, where a set of standard tension strings would pull the neck forward enough it was "straight" for playing)

"Tim McGraw" is the debut #single by the American singer-songwriter #TaylorSwift, released on June 19, 2006, by #BigMachineRecords. Swift wrote the song with #LizRose, and #NathanChapman produced it for her debut studio album, Taylor Swift (2006). "#TimMcGraw" is an #acousticGuitar–led #country #ballad that incorporates the '50s progression and features #fiddle, #mandolin, and #Dobro.

I'm a #guitartech, I've worked under many people, worked for Guitar Center, and had my own shop for a time. I still do it on the side these days & I'm always happy to give advice. I've worked on everything with strings that isn't a classical instrument.

I #DIY a lot because I often find cookie cutter or off the shelf solutions to be lacking. I'm often seen making or modifying some thing to better fit my use cases.
