Good afternoon fellow music enthusiasts!
I just purchased my first 8-string guitar, an Ibanzez RG2228. I have been an avid 6-string player for years and honestly didn't get turned onto the ERG until I found Tosin Abasi. So naturally I want to start off playing as close to his style as I can.
I read different articles about string gauge and have decided I want to go for the 9-74, if possible DR's. I have only been able to find this range from no-name string makers and can only find 10-74 for popular string makers. I want to aim for the Standard E tuning with a Dropped E1, again like Tosin, I like his methodology for use of the upper strings.
Does anyone have a known store I can buy these DR 9-74's? If not any other well known brands? I'd prefer not to push above 74.
Thanks for any useful advice!
