String Sizes Guitar Type ?

[Chocol8]

I thought I would put a set of these strings on this guitar this morning.

I tried their set of 8’s and didn’t like them. The gauge was OK but the rest of the experience kept reminding me that they were cheap strings. They took more stretching to achieve a stable tune when brand new, and didn’t last long before getting dull, not holding tune, and showing signs of corrosion. I don’t love paying for NYXL’s but they do last longer for me which reduces the overall cost and the time I spend restringing!

Grabbed a set of 11-54 "Beefy Slinky" for drop C and a set of 10.5-48 "Mega Slinky" for E flat over lunch. That plain 22 is a monster! But strings feel way better overall. Not sure why I'm so hesitant to change gauges with alternate tunings.
