For my electric, I'm going to try out the 9-42 (currently using 10-46).

But what about acoustic? Any opinions out there? (I like to bend & solo a lot)

Thanks in advance,

I would go with the lightest gauge i could find,since you want to be able to bend and play comfortable.Only downside on very low gauge strings is they tend to be less loud or produce less tune.Me personally i like to use light gauge strings and just change them every 2 weeks cause i dont want to play something i cant bend or play comfortable. smile.gif

My Gear
Cort X-2 electric with 24 frets and 2 humbucker's dark Blue
Kustom DFX100 With Celestion Speakers,and thats it now (lol)

My Advice
Figure out what you want in life early.Wether it's the girl,the partying
or mastering the guitar.Adding any 2 together will get in your way.

Thanks Shredman,

When you say "light" - what guage are we talking about?
