Hi Jon,
Well it is really a matter of personal taste. In standard and slack open tunings the guitar will handle anything up to heavy gauge, which is 14/59. Whether you can play it with such heavy strings is a different matter. If your guitar is currently strung with 13/56, that should be fine in standard. For open G & D I like to use a slightly heavier top E, so for 14/59s I replace the 14 with a 16, and with 13/56s I replace the 13 with a 15.
I hope that helps,
Shine On
Michael.
