Not Even Slinky

[yamatsuka]

Hey all,

 

I'm planning on letting my Epi LP being adjusted (neck adjustment and such) to C tuning (C F Bb Eb G C), and thinking the EB Not Even Slinky will be a good fit for this. What do you think about this? Will this gauge be good, or will I need some lighter or perhaps heavier gauge?

I played the beefy 'slinks then switched to the NE 'slinks as a method of building up my left hand legatto technique.

 

i tuned them to standard and muscled through them on an old beater axe.

 

the only time i used them on a guitar i truely loved, i was too afraid to screw up the neck and left it at C standard.

 

I actually really liked that tuning combined with those strings.

 

and they lasted forever.

 

That string set is specifically for dropped tunings sir, as i was informed.

Thank you very much. Now I know for sure I'll like the tuning and strings.

Correct answer, dropped tunings need thicker strings.
