So what do you guys think?
Personally i have always used ernie ball slinkeys (guage 10) as they are nice and twangy (if thats a real word) and are quite nice to squeal with. But i have not really tried many others so i was wondering what everyone else uses. Also while on the subject, anyone know what strings zakk wilde uses?

Read the whole list on the back of the package some time.

D's here. But Ernie Ball is good for pinch harmonics, true.

One of the two guitars here has smooth jazz strings on it and I use it to play in a heavy band. Almost doesn't work, but it sounds interesting.
