String set choice help, (with some spec questions too)

Sign in to disble this ad
Ok guys... My EBMM Hybrids are dead and it's time to look for some new strings. Needing some help!

1) Am I imagining things when I use heavier gauges and can get my action lower? (Tighter vibration arc? Tension keeps my right hand under control?) Thinking I wanna go heavys regardless of the answer to this.. I do all my own set ups.

2) I use a 3eq H Stingray. Any other Stingray owners have a particular brand that really brings out the character in this instrument? I'm curious about Heavy Steels...

3) I play primarily fingerstyle, but I also slap and chord frequently. I rarely use a pick.. usually only to experiment. I'm slightly heavy handed on the right hand.

Any takers willing to help me out on picking my next set?
