BB King Signature strings for blues

BB King Signature strings are put out by Gibson company. Has anyone used
them? They have interesting guages, (from first to sixth) .010, .012, .013, .024,
and.054. I'm gonna' try 'em on my Gibson 345 (precursor to Lucille).

Also, what amps do you use for electric blues? How much wattage?

I use a 30 watt Peavey, all valve - retro styling. Gives a lovely warm sound to the blues
