What strings do you all use ?? and what Gauge. I use Ernie Balls Super Slinky, I've been using them for about two years now, before I used Fender Super Bullets, They have nice tone and they last if you treat them right. I try and change my strings every 3 to 4 weeks, but with these, there is no real need to do that, unless you are out playing gigs every night, If you want long lasting strings that sound great and are a great price for any guitar. IMO these are the strings to do that, So what do you guy's use, and why

On most of my electrics I use DR-Tite-Fit Nickel Plated HT 9.5-44, I used to use Ernie Balls Super Slinky, What I find with the DR is, they feel nicer, easy to bend, last a lot longer, and have a nice brite sound to them, On my Fret King and Fender Strat i use either DR Pure Blues Pure Nickel 10-46, Or I sometimes use DR Hi-Beam Hex Core Nickel Plated 10-46 If I've ran out and cant get any DR strings locally, I will use Ernie Balls Super Slinky's, and for the 10-46, I will use Regular Slinky's, On my acoustics, I use Martin 80/ 20 Bronze, Custom Light. 11-52, or 11-54. For slide playing I use a heavier gauge, Martin Phosphor Bronze 13-56,

I use Ernie Balls Super Slinkys 9s, I have tried many different strings, from Fenders, Gibson, D'Addario, Rotosound, I found none of them was as good as "Ernie Balls" for feel, or lasting longer, IMO.
