Hey Doc do you use those lil baby 9's? if so i will send you the set i have for free, i will never use them. I just swapped 10 sets of 9's for a few beers, too slinky for me..
Yep, I tend to use 42-09 gauge strings on 25 inch, or 25.5 inch scale guitars, and 46-10 gauge strings on 24.75 inch scale guitars, I got to the point where I'm fairly comfortable with both gauges, I seem to remember Fender using heavier gauge strings on their 25.5 inch scale instruments, like the Stratocaster, that's probably why you see a lot of vintage Strats with 5 trem springs.
I block my trems, hate the things and use 10's, 13's on my slide guitars but anything smaller than 10's? i just dont like them, i should really use 11's for a standard string set seeing as i am a rhythm player who sometimes lashes out into the i am invincible lead role![]()
Hey Doc page 67.... nudge nudge wink wink say no more
Some people like trems, some don't, I'm going to set up the trem on my Strat so that it floats since I want to be able to get that "Surf Shimmer" sound where you play a barre chord and then use the trem to slowly lower the pitch of the chord and then bring it back to pitch, works great on a clean sound with lots of reverb.
Ahh thats what i do with my fingers, but each to his own.... enjoy
