I have used D'Addario Chromes. The flat wound in 11's. I started loving them back in the early 70's and then forgot about them until about 5 years ago when I heard Johnny used them. I don't know the size he is using but I think the 11's are a nice match to normal 10 round wounds. To me the playability is much better and not much difference in tone. Listen to one of Johnny's CD's or see him live and you won't know which one has the Chromes on it just by sound alone. Well worth ten bucks to try a set and it shouldn't need a total setup just for a try.

I don't have the Gibson guitar. I have a semi hollow body Epiphone. Nevertheless, I put the D'Addario Chromes on it. I really like the sound and feel. The .10 or .11's work great.
