Strings
It so many strings to choose form and a lot of brand names I have never heard of here in the stats. What is everyone 's favorite for metal/clean? Need some advice thanks
I have used most brands over the years (Gibson, DR, GHS Boomers. Ernie Ball, Dean Markley, etc.), but settled in with D'Addario about 10 years ago. EXL110 for my 6 string guitars, EXL110-7 for my 7 string and EXL165 for my basses. I also have a few packs of EXL110W (wound .18 gauge G string) that I'm going to check out on a guitar or two in the near future to see how they work out.
I use Ernie Ball super slinkys 9-42 on my Maverick and Ernie Ball regular slinkys 10-46 on my Eclipse II. I've used these strings for decades. I've changed guitars over the years but I never switched strings. As a side note I use Rotosound 66 Swing Bass 45-105 strings on all my basses and have for years.
I just received my Custom Stringjoy strings, 3 different sets, I need to test them soon and I'll tell you how it feels and sounds.
