Try different tensions , are you able to handle 27-29? It may be harder for you to generate more power than something like 22-24. I'm used bg 80 string at 24,25,26 & 28.
I play with bg-80 at 24lbs. I find it suitable for me. For yourself, its a matter of testing different tensions and seeing what you like and dislike.
BG80 is a hard string. I play BG66UM previously @ 27lbs. But for BG80 i play @ 24lbs. It's Alright for me, since BG80 is a hard string. Don't string too high tension if your wrist not that powerful to handle it yet.
I play with BG80 23 pounds sometime. It's still very powerful. BG66UM performs a lot better, but BG80 is still a champ at low tensions.
I suggest that you try other brands so that you can experience high tensions! They're fun to play with if you can deal with it. I've always wondered what it is like to be Mark A who can play at 28-30 while i just string for fun that high.
