Best gauge for Eb tuning

StringsOf4 · #1 07-03-2006, 12:34 PM

I'm currently using .045-.100 gauge strings, but they get a bit floppy in Eb, mostly just the E(b) string though. Would switching to .105 help, or just a new set of my current gauge?
Thanks.

I use D'addario EXL160s, which are .105 - .50. Works for me.
