D'Adarrio, 11-49, C#. I may switch the lowest string to a .5-something, though, for some tighter riffing, even though I love the huge bends I can get on the low string. Every once in a while I think about switching up brands, too, but I love D'Addario's, especially compared to the Ernie Ball's I...
