Watch Andy Timmons play a while.

Hand me your electric with 10's on it and I will hand it right back and tell you to take the railroad cables off of it. I play 9's on everything. And don't give me that bullcrap about bad tone with light strings unless you can diss Billy Gibbons who plays with ... 7's.

I even play 9's on my acoustic jumbo and it sounds just great. Maybe a wee tad less volume, but more sustain and ... I can bend strings well for blues, and if I can't do that, as far as I am concerned any guitar (including acoustics) is worthless.

What a shrewd way to sugarcoat your insecurity. Playing 009 on acoustics...lemme guess...you're 5' 1'' tops, under 115 pounds? Won't even make UFC straw wieght.
