Adrian's Recommendation

"For most beginner electric guitar players, I recommend starting with 9 gauge strings. They're easier on the fingers, easier to bend and make learning more enjoyable. If you're unsure which strings to choose, 9 gauge is usually the safest place to start. Acoustic players should always keep a spare set of strings in their guitar case so they're never caught out by a broken string."
