For standard tuning electrics,
Fender-scale(25.5") .011 .014 .018p .028 .038 .048
Gibson-scale(24.75") .010 .013 .017 .026 .036 .046
Tuned 1/2 step down (I did this for years, years ago)
All guitars .011 .014 .018p .028 .038 .048
I play way too heavy-handed for thin strings. I keep the action plenty high for zero buzz ever and extra traction for bending. With the thicker strings it sounds fat and works great for slide too.
The acoustic gets whatever. Crap guitar and it has electric strings half the time.
