Light-to-medium string sets

Shannon · 04-30-2006, 12:23 PM

Hey kids,
For the longest time, I've use a standard 10 gauge set (10 13 17 26 36 46 56). However, I strung up my S7420 with a hybrid set (top 1/2 from a 9 gauge set & the lower 1/2 of a 10 gauge set) & I'm loving it.

I'm know trying to find a string SET close to these gauges.
9 11 16 26 36 46 60
Does anyone make a set like this or am I stuck with getting a custom set? Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

Well, basically every company makes a 9-46 set, but I can't say I've seen a 9-46+60 all together as a set. :/

maybe you could make your own set

I'm aware that I can make a custom set. I'm just wondering if there is a pre-packaged set in those gauges. If not, I'll make a a custom set at juststrings.com.

If there is, I sure as hell never heard of it. I use .009"-.046"+.059" myself.

EDIT: Actaully, Snake Oil brand strings made such a set, but I don't even know if they're still in business.

I looked at Juststrings.com and couldn't find a .009-.058 SIT set. But I know GHS sells one. BUT, the gauges run .009, .011, .016, .024, .032, .042, .058. So I'm not sure if it would work for you.

That would just be a light 9's set.

9-46+60 is the exact gauge set I'm after too, resulting in getting a bunch of ernie ball .060's and hybrid slinky sets
