String Gauges

D'addarios 9-42 +58

I like to be able to bend my strings without a vein popping out on my forehead

i use Dean Markley Blue steels in 11-52(with wound g-string) in standard E on 25.5" scale
For seven i use the seven-string version of that set, meaning all reamins the same with the addition of a 60 low b string.

I use 9-42 for my 6, when I get my 7 (Which should be within the next 3 days or so) I'll probably use 9-52 or somewhere around there. I don't really like big strings because they sound a bit too muddy for my taste. However, I'd like to tune to d standard sometimes on my 6, so I'm thinking maybe I should use 10-46 instead. (10-56 I think for my 7)

custom order a set of strings from juststrings.com I got my set for 13.25

9,12,16,24,32,44,60 in DR Strings Tite Fit Series

 

[Tubbs Mcgee]

Hmm... I'll consider it. I've been there before, they've got a whole ton of different strings there.

Ernie Ball Strings:

9's - E and Eb
11's - C#

7 - String: Where I live there is only one set, the "Seven String Set" that everybody carries, I think they're D'Addario XL's or something.

I might try a set of 10's on my new Tele, the 9's feel too light.

 

[RCB]

6 strings:

Washburn WR152---10-52 at drop D

Jackson JS30RR---10-52 at E standard

B.C. Rich Warlock---12-54 (I think ) at C standard

All strings are Dean Markley .

I think I'll go with DRs for when I eventually get a 7. Though I'll have to go online for em' since Reno doesn't believe in 7 strings .
