Ernie Ball regular slinky 10-46 at the moment.
Have also used Elixir Nanoweb (very nice and last for ages).

Ernie Ball Super Slinkies 9-42 the only strings I ever use...I tried some others but the ernie balls seem to last a little longer and I rarely break a string with 'em.

Where I do excessive bending and have realitively small hands I use D'Addario 8-38s and find that they hold there new tone and stay in tune better than most strings.I find that the lighter the strings the farther and more steps you can bend them.

I was just going to ask the same question, but wanted to know if there's a brand or type of string that will accentuate a Tele's twanginess.
