What seems to be the allure for me is the light bottom strings rather than the super light tops. The low E 38 has me twangin like a wild man and the middle two the D (22) and G (14) is a twang fest as well. I made a whole night out of copping some of James Honeyman Scotts' old Pretenders licks.

I apologize in advance for being goofy but it really is a weird feel for a life long heavy string guy. Honestly I had only been using those 11's for about a year because before that I had 13's on all my stuff.

I do see a downfall though and this is the truth, the super lights can lead to some "bad taste" noodling. That may be a problem for a man like me, I have the attention span of an amoeba.
