would you suggest for a full step down? DGCFAD

I've been using Ernie Ball Regular Slinky, but seems to be some floppiness and intonation issues here and there. Gonna get a setup done, as I've not had a setup in quite some time, but I was thinking about heavier strings.... maybe Power Slinky?


Any suggestions?

Power Slinkys will treat you right for that tuning. Anything heavier (and the EB folks make them heavier) would be overkill.

Look no further than DR, tite fit nickels.

I use EH11s (11-50), hands down the best strings I have tried. They last for ages, retain their brightness pretty well. Cost a bit more than normal, but worth it.

Come on guys, reply dammit! Looking for recommendations here, if someone can suggest something they consider better than DR I will certainly try it.
