Post your gauge preferences
Im curious to what your string guage preferences are, and what tuning you use them for.

10-52+70 for Standard+B and 1/2 step down (Eb+Bb).

Zugster is a jewel in the rough
I run 10-52s and 11s on my 6s. I don't have a 7.... yet. D'Addarios work great for me. I have a set of Gibbo britewire 11s that I need to try soon.

...there is no emoiticon to express what I'm feeling...
