Anyone use 8-38 or even 7-38 gauge strings, in STANDARD TUNING, 6-string, with Floyd?

    I'm still highly enjoying Dunlop 7-38 tuned to standard and Dunlop 8-40 tuned half-step down. Because I'm using such light strings, my playing time is longer, which should mean the strings should age faster. But, the strings still have great longevity.

    I recently discovered Ernie Ball released a 7-36 Zippy Slinky and 8-42 Hyper Slinky set, for players who are looking for more options.

    For now I will stick to the Dunlop sets. In April 2022 I ordered (from www.StringsAndBeyond.com as usual) even more of their 7-38 and 8-40 sets to last me several years and enough to convert most of my heavier-strung guitars to these smaller gauges.
