ahhh.... im not quite sure,but the lighter the sting, you bar chord might be easier. Right now im using d'arddio XL's and they aremore difficult than my darco extra light, however the thicker they are, the deeper tuning you can use. right now my low E can support Drop Bb... if youre just starting out, go for the lightest gauge you can, but dont play too hard or youll get a big ol' pile of broken strings
