I really don’t like D’daddarios, through the years i tried alot of strings including DRs, D’addarios, GHS, Arkays and Dean Markleys… for the last year or so i’m faithful to those GHS Dave Gilmour sets
they seem just right for meanyway… i play .010s on electric and .011 on acoustic… on electric i usually tune to drop D, acouctic is usually standart, sometimes DADGAD, so i don’t need to figure out odd sets of strings… fortunately
i can’t really imagine that i’d have to really figure out what gauges are the best for me – it’s enough for me when i have to figure out placing of pedals in effects chain when it comes to accesories – i like to keep it simpleQuote:wow, that question grew quick. ive never really had the money to experiment around with strings, but my choice/main and only knowlageable choice has been earnie ball slinky and when somebody says that ehx are way better, i cant wait to try em. also, i was thinking, for a longer sustain, would you want 9’s or 11’s?i’d use 11′ except that i’d probably use 10′ (i play tele)
9′ are very comfortable, but they are too floppy sometimes, according to my experiences they go out of tune easily and have a little bit of a problem to intonate right when you hit’em hard
they seem just right for me
