What do you normally use in another tuning? Even on a six or whatever is fine, but we need a starting point.
I use D`addario EXL110 (.010-.046) on my both my 6 strings, standard EADGBE tuning. Thats on a Suhr Modern and a Suhr Pro C1.

Use the same thing, and try a 68 for the low A. The low A string will be virtually the same tension as your low E (17.48 lbs vs 17.24 lbs). I use the same setup with that scale and tuning, but lighter high strings (9-12-16).
hi all i had a break from playing guitar and im trying to get back to practicing and im in need of new strings
i use schecter c7 hellraiser (26,5) and i go from standard B to drop A tuning. drop A being the one i use more often. so far ive usually used DR 10-56 but after reading this thread for a while im getting paranoid about the strings. that 7th always felt little sloppy and i have trouble with fast picking on it. rest seems fine.
please advise me on gauge for that 7th or maybe whole set, im open to suggestions. I like Dr but im not sentimental if you guys think some other company is better im happy to try it out.
thank you,

What's the best Circle K set for a 25.5 7 tuned to tosin tuning and drop c/d/Ab? I've seen many with 11-68 is that ideal? I like pretty heavy tension and don't want to sacrifice any tone.
Anyone care to give me some string advice for my Boden8, that has a 26.5 to 28 scale?
I'd like to have it tuned EBEADGBe and prefer strings a little heavier than 10's, no lighter if possible. Which string gauges should I go for? I'll be most likely buying from circle K.
Heavier than 10s on 26.5, or 25.5?
11s will be a ton heavier than 10s and CK don't do 10.5s, so either way I'd say 10's.
