I make my own custom sets in either 9-42 or 9-46. I use Dean Markley Flatwounds for the E, A, and D. I use Dean Markley Blue Steel for the G, B, and e.

I'm loving my elixir strings. Those strings are so smooth. Virtually no friction while I'm sliding my fingers across the strings. I have them on my electric and acoustic.

I'm always changing gauges on different guitars and as Chet posted, I like to make custom sets from individual strings.

Ernie Balls. I buy in singles to get my gauges. If they don't have any singles, I buy a couple of packs or however many it takes to put the gauges together.

Hasn't this question already been asked awhile back???

D'Addario EXL120 9-42's.

I buy them in multi packs - cheaper and a lot less packaging.

GHS Boomers. They are a decent price and don't seem to break as easily as other brands I've used.
