Just give me a set of Regular Slinkys on my Tele and a set of John Pearse on my Tak.

Good or bad is definitely subjective, but you can't deny that they sound a lot different than other strings. It is noticeable that there is a coating on them, and they do feel different, mostly on the higher strings.post.aux.fader said:

I used to use Fender Bullits but kept brealing 3rd or 4th, but then i play hard and bend a lot.

D'addario XL 10s. ... I've never felt the need to step up to 11s, i guess i don't play that hard.

For my G&L Legacy (a fancy ass strat) I use D'Addario 10s.
For my Gibson Les Paul Standard (Limited Edition, ooo) I use DR Blues in 11s.
If you want the best tone get a pack of DR strings! Just don't expect them to stay pristine beyond the first few days.

I'll add a vote D'Addario's. I use 9-42 on Strats and Les Pauls; 10-46 on semi-hollow bodies like my 335 and 11-49 on my ES175, Heritage 525 and Ibanez Artcore AF85. Elixer makes some great acoustic strings (haven't yet considered trying them on any electrics).

I've tried everything... DR strings are my favorite by far. In fact I can't stand any other brand.
I've been using 9-46 sets, but coincidentally I just special ordered a set of DR tight fits yesterday with 9.5, 11.5, 17, 26, 36, 46. I think it will be perfect, because the set of 10s I am using sound better than 9s, but 10s and 13s are too hard to bend 5 half steps.

I use fender bullets on my strat. They stay in tune better on a fender.I change before every gig or else I break strings. I just went to 10's and they sound better, I can still bend them too.
