I've replaced my low E string on the Stratocaster by an "0.54 Elixir Optiweb" string. I've read on the internet, that many people using strats having the problem (as me), that their low E string sounds kind of dull/dead and low gain/volume on especially the pickup switch at position 5 (neck only). Somebody told me, that replacing the original 0.42 by an 0.54 would improve, and my feeling is, that I've got 15% more "Wumms!" on that string now. Wumms ...

Cool stuff, interesting stuff about the E on the Strat. I never really paid attention to details like that to be honest, I turn the volume up to max on the Strat, turn the amp up, pick up a really hard pick and then dial in a dirty rough tone on my amp (I played for years with a big blue hard bass pick until I lost it a few month ago). Using effects and distortion sort of masks any problems that are more pronounced when playing clean. Keep up the experimentation, very cool to read! P.S. try playing with a "dirty" sound, you might like it too ;) +1
