jnstrom Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 I currently play the Gibson Vintage Reissue VR9 Electric Guitar Strings but want to try out some new strings on my Custom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichCI Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 If you're looking for suggestions, I've been using WebStrings for the past couple of years on all of my guitars. They sound good, feel good and they're inexpensive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeRom Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 OK. Go for it - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BIGBENDS Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 I don't remember where I read about Stainless Steel Strings being bad for fret wear, but you might be aware of it. Nicklewound is the best way to go, from what I've heard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmac Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 maybe they're too standard, but i like DR's...not too expensive, great sound Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AXE® Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 but want to try out some new strings on my Custom. By all means, please do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jnstrom Posted November 15, 2008 Author Share Posted November 15, 2008 Ok I guess a better question would be: What strings do you play and why? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Plains Posted November 15, 2008 Share Posted November 15, 2008 I've stuck with Gibson strings for the most part. Brite Wires & Vintage Reissues. Brite Wires are nickel plated & Vintage Reissues are pure nickel. I'm going to try the strings RichCI pointed out, but the only thing is they're nickel plated...not pure nickel. I only want pure nickel on my reissues. I'm going to give Fender pure nickel strings a shot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
