What gauge do you usually buy?

I used to be a huge fan of 12's, but then I realized I wasn't S.R.V. so I stepped it down to tens, now I use Slinky Top Heavy Bottoms (top three are from a set of tens, bottom from a set of elevens) and those Beefy Slinky's on my backup (it's an 11-52 set, whereas normal 11's would go 11-48).

maybe I can wait in bed 'til she comes home. and whispers....

i think the lightest i've ever played were the 11's you're talking about. the ones with the wound G's?

right now i have 12-54's and i hate them. their much too loose and leinient. i usually play with 13-56's, because i can't stand light strings.
