    What's wrong with 10s in D? I've had them on my KE3 and they were a little bit sloppy but still very manageable.

      10's most of the time.

        I use 10s mostly for E and Eb tuning. If I played more often (like hours per day or gigged several nights/week), I'd probably use lighter ones.

          9's for standard tuning, and 10's for D.

                        9's on all my electrics but my LP and I use 10's on it. My acoustics I use 12's, sometimes 13's.

                            25.5 scale, I use 9-42s, but sometimes 8-38s. 24.75 scale I use 9-42s or 9-46s. On a 25 scale like Carvin, I use 9-42s or 9-46s. Jack.

                                I've been using .010-046 for a while now but I must admit, I'm thinking about going down to .009 set for a few of my guitars. I wonder if I'll break more strings though... [img]/images/graemlins/scratchhead.gif[/img]
