    009s belong on the Hello Kitty strats 010s seem right to me on Strats and Teles - 011s get pretty beefy, and from my experience you would need to make adjustments to the nut to accomodate. There may be some issues going back to a lighter guage once you have the nut carved out to accept larger dia strings. SRV is reported to have played 012s or 013s

    011s RAWK on my HB-30 though! But I don't like the wound G string on the set I have on now.

    I currently have 10's on my strat like Godin SD & 11s on my chambered Godin Radiator. They both used to have 9s.
