Anyhow, a couple of questions.

First, do any of you use heavier strings on your guitars dedicated to playing slide?

Second and related to the first question, I've got some 12's for my accoustic that I'm not using. They're the D'Addario EJ16 Phospher Bronze. Would these work well for this application?

And Cat, if you're lurking, no. I'm not gonna try 8's on this. :mrgreen: :mrgreen:]]> Slide and Alternate tunings rparker https://guitarnoise.forum/slide-and-alternate-tunings/couple-of-string-questions/#post-35890
