What kind of strings do you kids use? I recently just put on some ernie ball strings. Seems decent and they've got a pretty accomplished list of artists on the back of the package.

I was going to do a poll of strings but then could only think of 2.

Using the search feature would have solved that in a hurry. :p

I've been using ernies, but I'll probably be getting elixers as soon as I feel like waking across town.

Ernie Ball super slinkies. Anyone ever try the .08's? I bet those puppies wail.
Blues is easy to play, but hard to feel.

I usually use GHS or GIBSON 11 s for that low down chunk.
although it takes awhile playin on 11 s to get your fingers
strengthened so you can get the right bends, I find its
well worth it. [after the bleeding stops:D ] Mark
