My stick welder is AC only and i've had good luck 7018ac (reg 7018 will work in a pinch, but hard to start). 6013 is another common rod I use fairly often, it burns decent on AC, i use this on thinner stock at a lower amp. If you have the money a good miller ac/dc welder would be a solid purchase but lotsa guys around here are doing just fine with AC only.

Believe me, with my old junk equipment my welder gets a work out and i've managed to handle it all with AC only. I would much rather have use DC but for $1000 on a new welder I can burn a awful lot of 7018ac rods and put up with the ugly bead. FWIW
