Hey guys, first post here! I just bought my first seven string after 12 years of playing 6 strings (Schecter Loomis NT Black). Stumbled upon this site and just registered.
After reading endless threads about string tension, and playing with the 7 string standard sets (hated them, 7 string was too floppy), I decided to create my own custom set. I settled for 9-12-16-26-36-49-68 in E Standard. Also, I swear by Elixir strings. I would've chosen a .66 for the low B but Elixir doesn't make them. Bottom line is, I LOVE IT! Anyone else using this specific custom gauges or something close?
