But now I've put them on the LP Special... goodness me.
Bit of Savlon for your fingers and you're sorted.
Funnily enough, I could imagine switching most Gibsons down to 10s, but the single coil guitars (including a P90 LP Special I got a while back) - I just don't fancy the lighter strings on those.
I thought he went even lighter, .008 to .040? His "signature" Dunlop strings are even available in .007 to .038.
I tried 11s once, didn't like 'em. The high strings were too hard to bend and the low strings didn't seem significantly tighter or twangier than usual - it really didn't seem to produce the "bigger" sound everyone always claims. I stick to 10s. I might even go back down to 9s as I get older and feebler.
I'm a hideous wimp - 10s on my 335 and 9s on my Strat.
13-56 on my acoustic though....
