I second the motion regarding trying other sets and gauges ... Variety is the spice of life!

I have usually been using the Regular Slinkys on my SR5. Every once in a while though, I'll go with the Power Slinkys. If, you haven't tried those on your SR5, you're missing an AWSOME low B string tone, along with some extra guts on the first and second strings. I just put on a set of 5 String Flatwounds, model #2810. They are also very nice. I'll play them a few more weeks before I draw a final conclusion on the flatwounds.

Hey all, just wanted to call attention to the Strings Used at the top of this thread. I just edited it - John Petrucci has gone back to 10's as of today!

Best to all,
