Question: What strings do you use?

[VoidTerraFirma]

DR 10s for standard stuff
Ernie Ball Not Even Slinky 12-56 for the C Standard Death Metal stuff.

 

[xStonr]

Usually D'Addario 10-46 with a wound G

 

[Modern Saint]

GHS Boomer 10-46 Solid Body, 11-50 Hollowbody
Elixir 10-46 Solid Body, 11-50 Hollowbody

Gibson or D'Addario in .010 and only a couple packs. Usually folks will bring what they like.

Based on the feedback from this thread I think I'm already pretty well set up...I have a few sets of EB, D'addario, and GHS strings in .10 and a few in .09 as well...and if they tend to bring their preference anyway I don't need to add any...

Thanks for the help, everyone!

I've used D'Addario 9s and 10s for years. I've been slowly swapping everything over to EB Cobalt Slinkies.

 

[GomezAddams]

Dean Markley blue steel 10s. Put these on your customers' guitars, and they'll come back to you the next time they need strings.

D'Addario XL10's on most. XL11's on the short scales. No preference on the acoustics. I'll usually put coated 12's on them.

Curt Mangan 9-42 on Fenderish guitars and 10-46 on Gibsonish guitars. For me, they are the better alternative to DRs, which I stuck with for quite a while.

 

[Frank Prince]

Fender 012 or 013 Flatwounds on my Guild jazzbox.

 

[Pine Apple Slim]

Mostly just DiAddario on the electrics. 10s on Fender scale and 11s on Gibson scale lengths.
I have Tomastic Infield flats, 13s, wound 3rd on my big jazz box.
Acoustics usually get Elixers, 12s or 13s.
I have a new set Martin Monels I'm gonna try on the Martin next change.
