I get the bulk strings from Just Strings. It took a little playing around to figure out what worked best for me.

Thats what im thinking about doing. Ive messed around with enough guages, so its just a matter of making an order that will make it worth while for shipping and whatnot, heh.

I also want to try some of their .007's on my S7.

You should hear a .056 and .068 at the same time. Absolutely crushing. The lighter string has more attack, while the heavier string has more girth.

To me, part of being successful as a two guitar band is to find differing, but complimentary, tones. Mike loves a really bright sound, while I go for more low mids. When I was trying to go for the same sound as Mike, I just got buried. His Soloist is better in it's frequency range than anything I have ever played--all grind and massive attack, helped along by his Wolfe-rewound JB7 and the extra punch of a Triple Rec. However, my V with a Custom5 is all low roar and thick mids, which compliments the Roadster well.

I spent forever in one guitar bands, so I've done a lot of growing as a player since I've been in Division. In the past, it was all about getting the exact tone that I want. Now, it is about carving out the frequency spectrum that fits best in the context of the band. Personally, I hate both of our rhythm tones when taken separately.

Everything comes in groups of twelve, so just order seven different gauges to make twelve sets. With shipping, it comes to around $56, a fifth of which is my low B.

Bend much?

Thats the biggest thing for me, the low B on a .065 sounds so huge and ballsy compared to the 56. Its not that its significantly louder (it isnt), its just so massive sounding.

I use a set of .0014 - .080 but I tune down to F#....

Yes, i actually want to try it tuned to G. I doubt it'd make it up to A. Garry's strings are actually really bendy and shit tuned to A, and they're 007's.

Is that a fucking bass string? My 64s are guitar strigns d00d.

Hell to the fuck yeah it is. They only had .056's there. So i was like "Lemme see your bass strings".
