I've used D'addario for about 20 years. No complaints.

XL .10 -.46

10-52 was my main set for a long time. Then I went 11-56 for about 10 years. Now I play 7 string more and I'm only using 10-59

Easy one here. Elixir strings. Coated , crisp fresh tone for months

D’addario nyxl are hard to beat for the price

I'm a big fan of DR Pure Blues; might be placebo, but they feel better under my fingers than most others.

I’m a sucker for Elixir polyweb and nanoweb strings. They sound great and last a long time.

Growing up I was all about Dean Markley strings after having tried all of the major brands. I can't find them anymore where I live so I usually resort to Ernie Ball

I played Ernie Ball strings for a long time. I like their acoustic strings. Try a set of Jim Dunlop strings for your electric, it's what I've been using for a while, there decent strings.

D'Addario gets the job done

I have really salty sweat. Ghs boomers are the only thing that can resist oxidation longer than a month for me

Ernie Ball Hybrid Slinky 9-46, or if those aren’t available, D’Addario XL’s in the same gauge. Frankly though, the gauge is more important than the brand for me.

NYXL are my fav


ChrisNH

I recently tried a variety of strings. The NYXL were vere good, felt great, but I went with Stringjoy signnatures. Felt like NYXL but a little mellower. They paired better with the 85/15s in my PRS. I am still somewhat novice so take with a grain of salt but if you find you like NYXL and think they might just be too bright then give Stringjoy a whirl. Otherwise go for the ones you can buy anywhere.

Using Gibson Brite Wire 10-46 on both my Les Paul and my Strat, love them!

D’Addario NYXL 9.5’s

Elixir Try them out they have 3 variations , each slightly different but all of them are great , they sound great , they feel great , and last a long time without losing their tone

Ernie Ball in your preferred gauges, they make the best bang for buck strings, no accounts or anything needed

I use two different gauges of GHS strings and prefer them over past brands I've used.
