So you're amazed as to how Dave's rhythm guitar slaps and strums so "perfectly"...but you can't. Ask all things about Dave and his guitars here.

Dave's Strings

Post by Doron Diamond »

On the Dave Gear site, it says Dave uses D'addarios, extra light gauge. Does Dave really play with .10 on his high e? That's so light! Doesn't the sound suffer when using lighter strings? Or was that just a picture and he uses a higher gauge? Anyone know? Thanks a ton.

I think he does use extra lights. It even says that on the D'addario website as well.
