I think a good place to start would be light gauge, and for an acoustic that means the 1st string, the skinny E, is a 12, Elixyr Polywebs, not Nanowebs. The Polywebs have a thicker coating and that will cut your finger squeak more. If you don't like them, THEN try the Nanowebs. They've also just come out with a Phosphor Bronze string, which I've not tried, but that might be as good, or even a better choice, for your 2nd option.
