ksdaddy Posted November 15, 2010 Share Posted November 15, 2010 D'Addario XL110s since 1984. Cheap, consistent and reliable. Hate Dean Markleys and Fender. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
damian Posted November 15, 2010 Share Posted November 15, 2010 There was this same thread, but that's ok.....I use Ernie Ball strings on electrics.....Various on acoustics, and haven't chosen a favorite brand for my basses. I'll change gagues; currently 10s. Gibson uses softer fret wire than other brands, so they recommend a string brand higher in nickel content as nickel is softer than steel based strings; just some info if you hadn't known this...But yup, love my earnie ball strings ! As for despising any brand, not yet...I will not use fender strings on my fenders or gibson strings on my gibson; could be the rebel in me...Well wait, I did try fender strings years ago and they were just AWEFUL...

rockman82 Posted November 15, 2010 Share Posted November 15, 2010 I just started using D'Addario strings, and so far I'm loving them. I have yet to see how long they last though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

damian Posted November 15, 2010 Share Posted November 15, 2010 My girlfriend uses many gauges and brands of G-strings.........I break them all the time with a single pluck... [lol] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pippy Posted November 15, 2010 Share Posted November 15, 2010 I use Rotosound Pure Nickel .011s on my LPs and Martin 80/20 Bronze .010s on my acoustic. Reading through the replies so far I'm definitely in the minority...I really dislike D'Addario's. I find them way too bright-sounding. Just my personal set-up, I expect. P.
