I've used Gibson Vintage Reissues for many years now. I used to be 009 man, but the shop who sold me the Firebird told me to stick with the 010s. I'm now pretty much used to them. [smile]

Ernie Ball 11-48, they are a little harder to play on the upper frets, but no other problems.

My strat has 11-48 and I love it because I'm NOT delicate with my picking and I'm not breaking strings too often.

 

I'm thinking of 12-50 or 11-50 since it would tighten up the bass strings for my right hand WindMill style.

 

its a 2012 FV
