Regular Fretter
Ive come to like Ernie Ball Regular Slinky 10's - use them on everyting. I don't gig or play with a band so they last forever (I do wipe down the strings everytime I finish playing). Great tone and they just feel right to my fingertips while playing and bending.

Regular Fretter
Used to use Dean Markely Blue Steels... and switched to D'Addarios of various gauges in the early 90s. I have never, not once, broken a string with the D'Addarios. I've used them ever since.
I've tried Ernie Ball, GHS, off brand and other strings. There are some great ones out there, but the D'Addarios last a long time, sound great, and don't break.
Unless quality goes downhill, I'll be using these from now on. Currently using the .009-.042 set. Used to use .010s on all my guitars, but got tired of putting in the extra fight for what was just a little more fullness in tone. Who knows, if I can find them, I may even try a set of .008s.
