My roomie is buying a bunch of shit and I'm thinking about throwing these in on his order. I love thick strings, right now I'm playing on the Heavy Bottom EB strings.

I get heavy bottoms and hybrid slinkies, string my tele with EAD of the hybrids and GBe of the heavy bottoms (same gagues as a regular slinky set) and use the others on my Dime, so it's heavy bottom end but super light top strings :tup: As for he "not even slinkies", they could probably tear your guitar in half if it's in standard tuning :lol:

The E string is like a G string on a bass.

Depends on the natural action of the guitar, I suppose.. I know I just put eb hybrids on a low end strat of mine and it was almost unplayable in standard tuning.. I usually use slinky to super slinky on that rig and they work fine.
