I've got an esp eclipse coming in the mail and I want to put flatwound strings on it once it comes, I've put light ten gauge strings on my stratocaster before (10-42) and they've alright for me. I'm asking this because I'm big on bends and I NEED to be able to do them without too much resistance. The thing is I played an sg a little while ago with what I was told were 11 gauge strings, and I had very little trouble bending those strings, so I'm thinking the change in string tension is greater from 25.5 scale to 24 3/4 scale then I thought, but i'm not sure. Looking for someone with experience in this sort of thing, will a heavy 10 gauge set be flimsy for the scale length? or should I go with the 11s?
