Funnily though I prefer a set of 10 to 52 on my R8 even though it has a shorter scale.

seriously though, I’ve heard a lot of pro’s have moved down a gauge or so. It’s probably much better at preventing arthritis further down the line, plus who doesn’t want a lighter touch? Lowest I’ve played are 9’s back when I started thinking they would be easier. My teacher passed comment about them
being too light and since then always been on 10’s or 11’s depending on scale length. Starting to realise this is all BS and might see what a drop
down does for me, as I notice my touch is a bit strong, especially when playing non-vintage frets.
