I have guitars with everything between 9s and 12s.

On electric, I prefer 11s. They're meaty and bluesy without being impossible to bend, or muddy. For acoustic I like 12s, just because they're done me fine for years and my particular guitar gets on really well with that tension.

I have the thinner strings on some guitars either for crazy shred tapping, or because some of the bridges don't have a lot of spring tension.
