    10 on my Pacifica and 10.5 on my Westone.
    Every love that made me lose my reasoning. Every chord that made my conscience ache. Every day spent counting hours. Well, none of them comes close to singing back a song inside my head.

    I remember calloused hands and paint-stained jeans, and I remember safe-as-houses self-belief.

    9 on some, 9.5 on others, 10 on Gibsons, 10 or 11 on my Jaguar, 11 or 12 on acoustic. Don't have anything strung with Flatwounds at present. Nothing down-tuned.

    9s on short scales.
    10s on long scales.

    9 right now because I accidentally bought a box of a dozen 9 gauge string packs. Hopefully I'll burn through them soon and I can move on to 10's or 11's. Never been a huge fan of lower gauge strings.
