Years ago, Ernie Ball's Slinky strings were the norm, and I hated them because they'd rust almost overnight and would break way too often, so I started experimenting with different brands and metals. Doing that showed me that the output, the sound of the pickups, and the feel of the guitar could change, even though the gauge was the same.
