Elixir Nanoweb coated 9-42 on my Strat. The same but 10-46 on my Tele.

Before that I used Ernie Ball slinkys but I love the feel of the coated strings now so I don't think there's any going back for me.

I was a lifelong D'Addario player until last year, when I switched to Super Bullets. I've always played 9 - 42's, though.

I just put on D'Addario EXL120 BRIGHT Round Wound .009-.042

I thought #1 E was a little dull at first but it must have been me. It's got a nice ring to it.

D'Addario 8-38 ,I use D'Addarios on all my stringed instruments they stay bright longer and stay in tune better than others I've tried in the past 40+ yrs.They can also withstand very agressive strumming and bending and whammy use.

Fender Super Bullets. They sounded good when I bought my guitars so I saw no need to try anything different. 8)

Right now I have Super Bullets .09-.042. This is a super light string for me but I thought I'd try them out. I like to try different strings from different companies to see what they're like. Ernie Ball Lime Greens are what I've settled on for my Epi LP but since I've only had the Strat for a little while I'm in the testing stages still. No complaints though with the Super Bullets!

The "stock" Super Bullet 9's. I tried EBs and Boomers but just liked the Bullets better.
