D'Addario EXL115

I use it on my les paul with tuning half step down or C or drop D or C.

These are what are on all my electrics. I mean, I'm not sure what you can say about this, other than they're amazing strings. They have a great sound, they feel great to play on them, they don't die for AGES... And as a bass player mostly, these let me do my bends on a guitar without fear of a break.

I've been using Ernie Ball 2223 on my Les Paul Studio and wanted to try EXL115. The low E started to buzz a lot. I thought it was due to the gauge change (.9 to .11). I thought it needed some adjustments on the bridge, truss rod... But before trying that, I removed the strings and restring my guitar with Ernie Ball 2720 (also .11). Where is the buzz?! Gone! And more: it nailed every string tune. Maybe someday I will try EXL 115 againg, but any time soon. Now my favorite strings are Ernie Ball 2223 and Ernie Ball 2720. I know not setting up the guitar when changing the string gauge is an illusion. But that was my experience.

I'm using these strings for over a year now and they didn't show any bad sides. They stay in tune very well, which is a thing I very much appreciate, because that way I can pick up the guitar just for a really quick few chords or something and I don't need to worry that it sounds horrible. They keep their tone very well and it's not a too big fading in tone between new and used string. They offer a good feeling, which is very important. I find when you are using the guitar a lot, you don't want to be unhappy with the feeling the string gives you. You can fingerpick them as well what makes you feel a little like Mark Knopfler ;)

A very cool side-effect of using these. You can redeem points on D'Addario's player's circle.

Well every string is good and unique in its own way. this is not a fit for me mainly because I play metal music but it ain't a bad string.

great quality stuff from daddario, give me a nice rhythm sound fits me due to being purely a rhythm player

These are one of the sets I use when I play. Except I customized this set by adding a .42 for the A-string and .60 for the E. It gives me a much more beefy sound since I have a heavy_pick_hand. Dave Grohl uses this exact set that's why I use it also. \m/

I play them with mit FMT and my Strat in E oder Eb tuning for Indie/Alternative Rock

Really love it because 1. Great crisp sound because of the nickel wound bass strings 2. they don't vibrate at Eb, caused by the strong pull
