Anyone on here tune to C Standard on 25.5 inch scale guitar? What are you using for string in terms of gauge and brand? Let me know!

The Ernie Ball yellow packet set of strings. Can't remember the gauge but it works well for me.

I use the power slinky seven set on my les paul for C. I think the top is a 58.

Although I mainly play in D standard with 12-54, I have tried C tuning with the same set and it feels perfect for that tuning.

Here's a warning if you buy Beefy Slinky's (the yellow Ernie Ball set 11-54), the G string is a plain .022". For some people, including myself, find it ridiculously thick. If you try an 11-54 set I suggest getting DR DDT strings. IMO, 12-56 is most likely you're best bet.
