Hi all! I was just wondering what brand of strings you all prefer....I recently replaced my fender bullets 9's with ernie ball super slinky 9's and it seems they are much smoother. They seem a little easier to bend and slide on. I thought the bullets were fine but these seem to have a better feel to them? Your opinions? Thanks!

I use D'Addario .10-.46 on all my electrics. On the Ibanez I use half-rounds, but same size. Been using them for a long time. Tried a few others, but always came back to these.

I don't have any problems with bends or slides, but I've probably gotten used to them. I have tried a couple of other guitars with
.09's and , yeh, it seemed easier, but it just felt like there was nothing responding to my hands.

Just my opinion, for what it's worth...

I just put the same ones as Andy mentioned on the new strat Squier and they are great.

I don't know if it is the guitar or the strings, but that was the easiet set of strings I've evered changed. I think I was done in less than 15 minutes. Definitely a first for me!

I bought several sets of Bullets for the Strat when I got it, so I've stuck with them - but most of the other guitars either have Ernie Ball light top/heavy bottom (.010-.052) or D'Addario 11's.

I like to use DR Tite Fit .009- 042's. I get some great tone out of 'em, they sound great on my HSS Strat.

I have the same, and have had good luck with them. Im jumping up to .010's next swap though

I use ernie ball slinkys. Good strings and you can get em cheap as dirt if you buy in reasonable bulk.
