GHS Strings GB-DGG David Gilmour Signature Series, Nickel-Plated Electric Guitar Strings (10 1/2-50)

This is the second string set that has made me realised that how much of an impact gauge can make on your playing. The first was daddario flat wounds, those make you play Jazz. However, Gilmour’s boomers are excellent for playing melodic rock solos. Instantly you sound like David Gilmour, Eric Clapton and the sorts. G is unwounded thus soft to bend and has a sharp tone. Gives a nice bell tone on a strat. The top 3 strings e,a,d seem rigid when you come up from playing the bottom 3 g,b,E. The overall strum sounds balanced with a slightly heavy base notes and relatively shrill high notes without much of mids. Which somehow sounds clear and crisp. One thing I am sure of is these are going to be rusty very soon.

I used to use 8-38 extra light string sets either at my 3 QE-Acoustics or at the 2 of my 5 Electric that needed re-string one day. One of the electric, although with careful setup, action adjustment, fret rod calibration etc from day 1, it had several problems of buzzing, intonation after the 12-15th fret etc and I was ready to return it to the Seller. Afterwards I decided to experiment with the GHS David Gilmour set, just to see what will happen with this thicker combination, although more difficult for bending and barre cords. I was right. The instrument is perfect now, without to change anything at the setup. No buzzing, much more accurate intonation at the upper area, beyond the 15-1th frets. Thanks David/Seller/Amazon...

I dont want other strings now !!

Received these in the mail and immediately put them on my Strat. Instantly felt a difference, can't really describe it but they just sound great and play amazingly out of the box and not even broken in. I don't have a Les Paul anymore but I might grab a set of the reds to throw on my Musicman. These will be my go to strings for my Strat from now on. Better than Ernie Ball Regular/Super Slinky, better than Elixir Nanoweb, better than D'Addario XL's. I've tried all types of strings on my Strat, and these just fit like a glove. Does Gilmour ever miss?
