=> D'Addario are great.  The gauge depends on what you can handle and what
=> kind of tone you like.  Heavy strings sound better but are harder on your
=> fingers and the guitar's neck.  If you go heavier than .010 for the
=> high-E, you'll probably have to have your nut reslotted.

I've personally found that D'Addarios are too cold sounding for anything
overly useful than the longest lasting string I've come across. Dean Markely
and Fender I personally prefer for the "warmer" sort of sound but DM's I've
found snap pretty quickly and Fenders tend to go dead and corrode pretty
quickly, so either way, D'Addario appear to have the monopoly cuz I'm poor :(
