Congratulations on that splendid LH Gretsch. Seems to me that you are ultra happy with that. Gretsch has allways been different from all the other brands. They really stand out. Over the years I have and still own at this time a couple of very, very nice Gretsches. Once in a while somebody will come up and say : you can't play jazz on a Gretsch. IMHO you can play jazz on any guitar. And one of my all time hero's Freddie Green proved it by playing a Gretsch Eldorado for decades in the Count Basie Bigband.
I still carry his 1950s signature in my guitar case to every performance so that a piece of him is with me at the gig

#11 JS will be fine of course, I use them with the Gibson Scale length and play with fingers ( thumb and middle ) too.
plektrum players may prefer thicker strings, as in #12, 13 ...
outstanding feel with these strings, sound of course too.
please report how you like them, after they have settled in.

As for a LP being boring, that’s just silly. If there’s a guitar that can do anything, it’s a LP.
Replacement rosewood bridge base for 1977 Gibson...
