            DR Tite Fit .10-.46

            Band plays Progressive, Metal, Rock/Post-Rock, Jazz original instrumentals, lately working on a couple of Led Zep covers.

            Got some of those bulk Martin Strings, in the same gauges. Seems the DR's are still my favorite, but the bulk wins for value.

                D'Addario XL 120's. Pretty much exclusively for the past 25 years. I do have a set of XL110's on my Shannon right now though. I play rock, fusion, and older metal stuff mainly.

                    Depends on what guitar I'm stringing.

                      Whatever 8-38 set I can find - prefer Blue Steels though. I play shred and try to play jazz by myself, and it's impossible to avoid playing blues jams too.

                        DR Tite Fit 9s for anything under the sun. Most versatile strings made imo, for styles and tunings.
