Your left hand goes on the neck and your right hand strums the strings.
Stevie used Fender amps, amps created by Charlie Dumble, a Texas amp builder, and played Fender Strats. He called his recording studio amp setup 'the wall of doom' because there were so many different amps, and he kept his amp tech busy , as he stated, cause there wasn't a day that went by that he didn't have one blow up. His legendary sound also was created by his noted use of heavy gauge strings, not of the typical 9/42 or 10/46, but something like(trying to remember)12?/62 that coupled with his mid boosted sound presented a sound, like Stevie, was larger than life itself. He displayed a ferocity onstage, a true passion for the blues. I remember reading an article about his 'skin patches', where he would put super glue on his fingers and apply them to his forearm to literally 'patch' the tips of his fingers. He had finally come full circle, exorcised his demons, embraced sobriety, and was in the prime of his life, when it tragically ended.......RIP, SRV.......Tom
In the song "Mockingbird" by Eminem, the primary instruments used include piano, strings, and drums. The piano provides the melodic foundation of the song, while the strings add depth and emotion. The drums provide the rhythmic structure and drive of the track, enhancing the overall impact of Eminem's poignant lyrics.
Really light gauge strings. Like rubber bands, I am told.
For optimal performance and sound quality, you should consider using light gauge guitar strings. Light gauge strings are easier to play and produce a brighter tone compared to heavier gauge strings.
To accurately gauge the thickness of guitar strings, you can use a tool called a string gauge or caliper. This tool measures the diameter of the string in inches or millimeters. You can also refer to the packaging or manufacturer's specifications for the exact thickness of the strings.

http://www.ultimate-guitar.com/news/general_music_news/michael_schenker_shines_on_new_album.html He uses .009 gauge strings. The brand I don't know
Yes, they do. The gauge of a guitar string determines its thickness and therefore its pitch.
There is no "correct" gauge for guitar strings. Use whichever gauge is comfortable for you. Higher gauge strings will ring louder and longer, but sustain and volume aren't as much of an issue with electric guitars as they are for acoustic guitars. If you're really unhappy with the sound of your current strings, try another brand or move to a higher gauge once you build up some finger strength.
Jaco used Rotosound round-gauge strings gauged 46-63-80-102, but it would be easier to get them in 45-105 gauge.
For tuning your guitar to Drop C, it is recommended to use heavier gauge strings, such as 11-56 or 12-60, to maintain proper tension and avoid string buzzing.
Yes, heavy gauge strings can potentially cause damage to a guitar, as they exert more tension on the instrument's neck and body, which may lead to warping or cracking over time. It is important to use the appropriate gauge of strings recommended by the guitar manufacturer to avoid potential damage.
The type of guitar strings you need depends on the type of guitar you have. Acoustic guitars typically use steel strings, while classical guitars use nylon strings. Electric guitars use steel strings as well. Make sure to choose the right gauge (thickness) of strings for your playing style and preference.
Hendrix's strings of choice were light-gauge Fender Rock 'N' Roll sets (gauged .010, .013, .015, .026, .032, .038)
