Hey Jimmy I thought you were dead! LOL I use both D'Addario and GHS Boomers on my guitars. I like both and I use .42-0.09 for the D'Addario and usually a .42-0.08 for the GHS Boomers. I was reading earlier about the DR Handmade strings, does anyone use these and if so what are your thoughts on these? I am considering checking them out this Tuesday when i go and pick up my pedal. I like that you can buy different coloured strings. I think the red DR's would look cool on my red and black BC Rich.

D'Addario 10.5's and 11's
I like the thicker sound I get from the heavier guage strings.
Weird thing happened tho...I picked up a set of 10's as the 10.5's were sold out...and they feel and look like 9's. Anyone ever have that happen??
I'll play them till they need replaced..just messed me up...they're all slacker than I've gotten used to.

Weird, something like that happened to me once, I bought D'addario 11s and I got 10s instead.

Was the packaging all marked correct and just had the wrong strings??
I double checked the packaging...and everything was marked right..but I swear these strings are lighter.
