Renegadrian - Strings?!     | | 2008-04-03 17:44:26
Nice collection of Kerry gear, but I do wonder if he really uses those wimpy 09-42 strings...Remember they always play in D or even lower, and they go well down on downstrokes riffing...i believe Kerry and Jeff use thicker strings...

Thanks for the comment Renegadrian. After a shitload of research we found out what strings Kerry uses. It came straight out of his mouth in an interview video with dunlop. read our gear listing above for the details of what we found.
