Hey, this is my 1st post on the forum. Just found a 7 string baritone acoustic in the house and the 7th string is way too floppy.
Scale = 28.5"
Tuning
1st C .016
2nd G .022
3rd Eb .029
4th Bb .048
5th F .060
6th C .070
7th G ??? (think it may be another .070)
I was thinking of trying a .080 on the 7th string, but would love to hear some more educated suggestions.
Also, where do you get a .080 (or similar) bronze string? I haven't been able to find singles for sale. I found one in a set of acoustic bass strings, but would prefer not to have to by a complete set of bass strings just to get one .080.
Thanks!!
Hey what's up homies. I'm in need of a pretty simple & subjective recommendation for some guitar strings.
I want to tune down to C/dropped to Bb. I have a simple strat (25.5" scale) with an EMG-81 going in the bridge. No frills but has been a workhorse in a few configurations. (It's a MIM body that seems to sound good with everything + a Warmoth Pro neck). Trem locked down tight/never used.
I don't have any idea what kind of tensions would be ideal, so I'm looking for a happy medium, not too tight or sloppy. Preferably a gauge that isn't too thick for my Schaller locking tuners. Yes for metal.
Thanks
Hi GAS maniacos!
I have a couple of questions regarding two of my babies, the firs one is:
1. Which gauge may I use on a LTD M-100 in D Standard? I am using .012 now, however, I want your opinions guys...
The second one is:
2. Which gauge may I use on a Hellraiser c8 in Drop E? I mean E-B-E-A-D-G-B-E, and which gauge should I use for the 8th string in standard tuning (F#)...
I am sorry if I was not clear enough... I want to know, if 12 gauge strings are good for D Standard on a LTD M100 guitar.... Also, in the Schecter, which I have it in Standard, a set of 9 to 42 with a 56 on the 7th and a 68 in the 8th...
I want to know, if the 12s are a good choice for D standard, and which gauge is recommendable for the Hellraiser....
I think that the first six strings are doing jjust fine (9-42) the 7th string is good as well, HOWEVER, I want to tune the 8th string in F#, and sometimes in E...
I hope I was clear enough this time!! Thank you Bostjan!!
