Put Pyramid 09s silver plated steel yesterday on my Dakota, not really satisfying. The sound is okay, but stringbending now much to easy for my liking, I thought the Dakota was 09 equipped when I got it, because stringbending was much easier than on the 330 which has 10s. But it was 10s on the Dakota, stringbending so easy maybe because of the high frets. I'm gonna put Pyramid 10s on it (the 'Rhythm&Blues set), and this is gonna be perfect.
On the Colorado I put Gibson 10s Nickel Wound Vintage Reissue Dontknow Something, they feel ok to your fingers, but the sound is to dark for humbuckers. I'm gonna put Pyramid 10s on it as well.
(By the way, did you ever listen to Fleetwood Mac's LP 'Then Play On'? No Rick connection probably, but I got this in my headphones right now for the first time, and the guitar work and the songwriting blows me away.)
Life, as with music, often requires one to let go of the melody and listen to the rhythm
