At the end of the day, tone comes from your hands. SRV's early albums were cut with the less successful Marshall and Fender amps that everyone else avoided. Ty Tabor cut the first two King'x X albums by plugging into a solid state Gibson Lab series amp. The clean intro on "La Grange" was Billy Gibbons plugging a Strat straight into the board!
Play what is the most comfortable to you. I don't use heavy strings for thicker tone or some juvenile "penis length contest",like one poster suggested. I play them because they feel the most comfortable to me, which keeps me from thinking about my playing. When I'm not thinking, I'm better able to get out of my own way and just
play the guitar.
