Strings/Gauges for GDGCD on 35"

[rodco]

Hi,

New-ish guy here.

135's aren't cutting it for the low G, too floppy. I am usually tuned ADGCE, occasionally go down to the G.

A guy I know though stainless steel would help with lower tunings.

Looked at the Pyramid catalog posted in another thread but did not find quite what I was looking for.

Anybody done this?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Circle K has strings that would do that with no problem.

Thanks!

Great product and info. Feel like I have enough info to take care of this.

Though for a minute I thought you were sending me to the convenience store to look for strings between the beer and slim jims.

Yeah, I wouldn't mind if you did pick me up some slim jims while you're getting them.

GDGCD <-> ADGCE ?
If you choose single strings for equal tensions in the theoretical average tuning of G#DGCD# this will minimise the tension imbalances in your 2 tunings. 30 pounds (extra light) is CKS recommended minimum. CKS are hex core roundwound nickelplated steel outer wrap over steel inner wraps.

After going over the great info and tension chart, I am thinking along those lines, probably a .150 for the low string.

Thanks
