I've got my K-7 tuned to F A# D# G# C# F# A# with a 74 on the low and a regular 13-56 set. In my experience, for a 25.5" you'd be best off using a 14-68 set (14-18-26-44-56-68) with an 84 on the bass side. I'm sure if you talked to D'addario they could hook you up with a custom string set like that.

I wouldn't recommend using the strings I did in such tuning, as it just sounds like mud and the strings can't hold the tuning very well at all. Back to using my 11-49-64 in B.

I am using 75 bass string ffor low G and it works fine. The string is cut from the bottom and locked in the FLoyd. The top oprtion has narrower gauge and fits fine into the tunning machine

Just download 'shuggah files for Guitar Pro. Change the guitar (and bass of course) tuning in BEADGBE and you're fine!
