My Hellraiser is fitted with nickel/steel Dunlop 46-10s and it has this fantastic twang (tuned up) that gives it character in rock, metal, blues, and country. Is this due to the guitar or is it due more to the strings? I don't know a lot about strings and I haven't played a lot of guitars, but I know that not all I've played have this tone.
