[RonnieD]

Just wondering if there are others using 11 guage strings on their PRS guitars other than the DGT's?

11's? I saw Billy Gibbons & the BFGs last night. I'm switching to 8's!!

I use 11's on my HB II but with an unwound G string. I know there are others in the forum that do as well

I have 11s on the DGT and hollowbody.

11s on Tremonti but that's to play in D…

I use 11's on my Custom 24 and my 408. 11's just seem to feel right to me with a 25" scale.

I used 11's on my 1990 CE24 since 1990. No issues. I'm getting old now and last year I dropped down to 10's to help my poor fingers. Loved the fat full tone of 11's. I used 5 tremolo springs with 11's and 4 springs with 10's.

I use 11 on my McCarty. I used 12s for the past few years on my Tele, so 11 feel a little like rubber bands

my 5310 came with 11s on it and it played great with them. i eventually went down to my usual 10-52 though

Where did you see the Rev last night?

I stuck with the 11's on my PS DGT and got used to them and liked the tone so much that I switched to 11's as well on my PS DC 245. I found as long as lathe guitar is set up great they play like butter!

.011 is the only way to go with a piezo loaded guitar. My P22 Studio rocks the .011s mightily.

Yeah, my Custom 24. And the SE One. And my Strats and Les Paul.

You know, right?

I switched 0.11s to 0.10s on my DGT immediately and I, tbh, did not notice any lack of tone or whatever. I use 0.9s on most of other guitars including my 408 SH.
Though, I have to attest that I tried 0.9s on DGT and I DID notice the lack of tone and the setup from 0.11 to 0.9 was a pain it the ass. So I go with 0.10s on DGT 0.9s on the rest.

P22 Studio? When I search for it I just find Yamaha pianos, and I think .011s are a bit thin for that.

Is it a one off or a PTC job or a PS or somethin'?

I use 12's (Ernie Ball Not Even Slinky) on my Tremonti Custom. I mostly play in Drop B.
