Welcome to LTG and congratulations to that "super dreadnaught" as the Sept 1, 1981 pricelist called the top of the line model. She was a good bit more expensive compared to the D-55. She was first listed in the March 1981 pricelist for $1495.
On March 1982 she was already listed for $1695:
The case was an additional $140:
The 1981 catalog has a full page for her, you can get a PDF from our forum owner GAD's page (click on the blue "here"):
The M-450 Medium Gauge strings were .013-.056:
The below ones are Light Gauge strings, the L-350 set goes from .012-.053 and I would try such.
