Really, I've been buying Dean Markley Nick-Silvers 10-46 by the case for a decade now and use on all my standard tune electrics w/trems. Heavier bottoms for the Drop-D's and 1/2's. 11's on the LP's. Used to be a big Boomers fan but the DM's made me say WOW. The Blue Steels do last longer but don't have that crisp sustain outa the pack like the regs-not worth the extra $.
Slinks=finger squeaks
Oh, Martins for the 12.
I once thought a "Sweeping Arpeggio" was an Italian janitor.
