What tuning do you all use?

I don't think we've had a thread for this. What tunings do you guys use on your 7s (and 6s too )

H207: BEADGBE

Sixes-
Jackson Performer - AEADF#B
Agile AL-2500 - EADGBE

I love it. My 7 has been getting most of the attention lately, but the Agile plays and sounds great - I've got some GFS Fat PAF pickups in it. I use it when I want to play Rush songs

I play with a ton of different tunings on my own, but the default tuning for my band is Drop A. I'm starting to write stuff in standard B tuning, but getting the other guys to convert is a bitch.

RG7621 (en route): I believe this is in A, which is what I'd probably use. Either that or AEADGBE

With the band:

7-string: ADGCFAD
6-string: CGCFAD

At home on my own I use a bunch of different tunings. Lately mainly standard and drop-D, sometimes down a half-step or whole step, as well as CGCD#GC, GCGCGCE (thank you Devin Townsend ), ADADGBE, A#FCFAD, etc.
