What kind of guitar strings should I buy?

Question

I don't play my electric guitar much, but I need to replace the strings and I don't know what kinds of strings to buy.

Answer 1

I use D'addario's but that's my personal taste in strings. They last long, sound good and don't cost a fortune.

Answer 2

i recommend ernie ball super slinky. they are the most common and they are good on the fingers.

Answer 3

Ernie Ball are good strings, but they can break easily sometimes.  GHS Boomers, are also another good brand, they are pretty durable and last long.

Answer 4

ernie ball super slinky all the way. they dont make your fingers sore and they are so easy to bend. and there only 5 bucks a pack

Answer 5

In my opinion, Elixir is the BEST brand for electric guitar strings. Although they are a little more expensive than other strings (about 22$), these strings put all other strings to shame. Trust me, buy 'em, you'll love 'em. L8r

Answer 6

I use ernie ball hybrid slinky but it really all depends on what you want to play.

Answer 7

Well it really depends on what type of music you play.

D'addario are my favourite type of strings. I use either 10-46 guage (Regular), or 9-46 guage (light top, regular bottom). They are about 10$ in store and they last me a very long time (about 5 months). I play everything from Rush, to Billy Talent, to Van Halen, to Coheed and Cambria and these strings are fantastic for all of them.
