Heavy gauge strings, which guitar?

ive got an epiphone sg and barchetta R6. im more comfortable playing the sg because ive only just got the r6. Im gonna get some heavy gauge strings on one of them but which would be better to set up?

I'm very weak and weedy so always use 9s lol.

 

And yes, changing gauge strings or even keeping the same gauge and just changing the brand of strings on a Floyd Rose will mean you'll need to setup the guitar again. It's a pain in the arse lol.

think im gonna go for dunlop heavy core strings not sure which guitar yet, gonna get the music shop to set it up. main reason for changing stings is so that rocksmith recognizes the notes on the low tuned songs like soil, ffdp, in this moment etc

The SG is a shorter scale guitar, and would benefit from the heavier guage strings more.
