Re: Who here uses .009 gauge strings on their les paul or les paul copy?
Yeah, do what feels right for you. It might take a bit of messing around before you find your thing. I was using 11s and 12s for a while, and while I loved the tone, it made bending a lot harder on the fingers, and I like bending and vibrato. Came back down to 10s for my E standard guitar and it's been great. I have 11/52s on an E flat Gibson scale guitar, to offset the reduced tension, and they sound and feel great.
