I like a good set of 9's. Doesn't feel like the strings are too thick on my fingers, and they're easier to bend!

I like Ernie Ball Super Slinkies (they're 9s). Feels like you're playing a stick of butter ... in a good way. :)

Hello Guitarlegend1218,

I like Fender Bullets,

They fit quite nicely in the
tremolo block.

Cheers.

Chet's on; depends on the guitar.

Faves currently are DR flatwound 11s on a few instruments. Outstanding strings. Capable of unusual brightness for flats, as well as nice articulation.
