i'll admit that the strings on my shorter scale guitar feel looser but it becomes a matter of preference. then again they're also .13s dropped to C... yet i don't play TEH MET-UHL!!! even back in the day when i used .10s tuned to standard the difference between those and the .09s on my strat wasn't really that noticeable to me. i can certainly see why people could have a preference though.

i also think it's pretty cool that we seem to have polar opposite approaches to style and technique yet never bump heads in the bad way
