    Best strings for playing pop/punk on a StingRay

    Hey everyone,

    I have a 4-string StingRay and my playing style is primarily pop/punk and occasionally classic rock. I've been using the regular Slinky strings, but I was wondering if anyone would recommend a different gauge string set? I really like EB strings and just want to use whatever set best compliments both my 'Ray and my playing style.

    Thanks!
