Just a little bit helped.

Changed the strings on my SE 24 Standard today. Was using EB's Hybrid Slinkys with a 11 for the B and 9 for the high E.

Thought I'd try the Turbo Slinkys with a 12 for the B and a 9.5 for the high E.

Nice results. I can tell there's just a little bit extra output on the B and E. Not in spades but just enough to make me say "these are the strings for this guitar!" No doubt the slightly higher tension is what made the difference.

I'm sold!

I'm big on the 9.5s. Play better than 10s, sound better than 9s.

Glad you found your comfort zone! Straight 10s for me but everyone has their own thing going on. Play till your fingers fall off!

Love me some 10s. My SE came with 9s, but the 10s are much nicer.
