Bueno,
Been wanting to try these Slinky Hybrid Stainless Steel strings, .45-.100. Do any one of you's out there use these on your Pre Ernie's, and your Ernie ball 4's, and how's is the tone? I usually use the regular nickle slinky's, and like to get your opinion's!

From the Skinny string side I accidentily bought some once. They tore up my hands. I could see fret ware happening. OMG they were bright. But after about 2 hours of playing I was screaming louder than my guitar. A pick and the lightest of touches with your fret hand are my recomemdations for Stainless Steel Strings.
People react differently to different metals. Nickel is a metal that everyone seems to get along with easier.
