Oh yes, I'm using .045, but I think I gets floppy when I tune 1 whole step down to D or more, to play heavy stuff like Pantera. I wonder if there is any kind of string that have more tension, or if I should use a higher gauge.
Very good info here! I also dig Rex Brown tone, but I'm having problems with the floppy strings when using drop tunings (I'm using .45). Do you guys know if using heavier strings can help?
Thanks!
