DOn't know about the sizes, but the standard gauges they use for the different 
strings in a set of Martin Marquis lights
seems to work well for me for a variety of styles of music,
with a variety of guitars over the years.  Have used them on my current Martin, 
an old Ovation copy; an Alvarez 6, their
12 string set on an Alvarez 12, an old Guild and some
others.
My ex son-in-law trying to be cool got me a set of Diadeerio (spelling) for 
Xmas one year, but think I gave them to
somebody else, as they're more suitable for electric imho.
But the Marquis lights are fairly good.  They're standard
gauge steel strings, but they hold up well.  THey're also
even enough to bend etc. so they should serve you well.

Regards,
           Richard
