i'll recommend Ernie Ball Skinny Top Heavy Bottom guitar strings to all of you. i'm in love with em, i wont even try anything else anymore.

    I don't find them too attractive, they feel too yuck to me.
    When this just feels like spinning plates.

    I'll never play Ernie Ball strings by choice...

    GHS (and others) make thin/thick strings that are all the same... thicker E, A, and D strings, with normal G, B, and E strings. GHS also makes a set of strings based on Zakk Wilde's recommendations that are just about the same, too.

    Those strings are especially great for chugga-chugga power chords.
    ...and if you don't like it, you can suck on an egg.

    those Zakk Wyldes are pretty nasty, although i imagine they tear up your fingers if you play them alot. Im quite comfy with GHS boomers (light 10s)

    I prefer the Dean Markley "Blue Steels" or Elixirs if you can afford them....they feel really cool because of their teflon coating.

    i have a friend who is into folk that highly recommended elixirs, so thats actually why i stay away from them, because i dont want that sound.

    The strings aren't going to give you the folky sound man....thats based on the amp and the guitar you are using

    If Earnie Ball strings on a Strat were good enough for Jimi Hendrix, they are definately good enough for me.
    If we all stop voting, will they all go away?
