what string gauge do you use..
 

well folks its the thread every forum has so cant leave it out on this one.... what string gauge do you use....

Re: what string gauge do you use..
 

i like 11s or 12s, no i don't detune, standard tuning, or Eb if i am playing with a CD, i just prefer them the stings that is to tear my finger-tips off :-D

:jumpgrin:

hey i tried 11 and above and did not like the sound of them...

Re: what string gauge do you use..
 

10s is fine buy me. I don't need to have a big-dick contest. And Mr. Hendrix used 8s. So if he can sound massive with 8s. I should be alright with 10s.

ijust use 11s or 12s because i'm that's what i am used to, i play acoustic guitars at home mainly, and bass in the band, so playing on thick strings don't feel so weird.

10's

DR Pure Blues or EB Slinkies

Re: what string gauge do you use..
 

Dr are a nice set of strings last long.. and sound nice... only thing is they cost a bit more then the others.. i think if they were cheaper more folks would buy them..

They are a little more expensive, but I'm always happy to shell out the extra for a set of DR's. You know?
