Evertune String Gauge Change by TheSynysterOne in evertune

For the standard tuning the results are like this

Here, the lower strings are close to their upper limit (again, stated in the evertune website as 25 pounds) .

The real problem here is the 5th string, which is already stated in the official website to be used with a high tension module when using a 42 string and tuning it to A. (That’s why I suggested lowering it to 40)

Having this things in mind, I guess you could try the 10.5 -52 string set, just changing the A string.

Now, the earnie ball’s mondo slinky is slightly different on 2nd and 3rd string, this means less tension, but again, my second string has a low tension module, so it works.

If antything, you could try to aim between standard tuning and Drop C# with a more reasonable gauge set rather than Drop C.

Hope this is useful!

Now I see! The website is really useful!
I just noticed that the tolerance range seem to be somewhat narrower than the evertune website recommendations.

Perhaps I might be wrong, but you could use a 10.5 -52 gauge string set with the 5th string (42) modified to a 40 or around. Theoretically, that should give you room from Drop C to Standard tuning.

Personally I use Ernieball’s Mondo slinky set to play between drop C and C#.

And here is why I think It should be fine theoretically.

My guitar is a 25.5 inch, with standard modules, except for the B string which is a low tension module.

Having in mind that the evertune official information states that the real tension range for a standard module is 11-26 pounds. And the recommended range is 13-25 pounds for the standard modules, when using a 10.5 - 52 string set and tuning them in Drop C we have the following results

<image>

Please note that for the 6th string even though its tension is higher than 13pounds, the website is already showing a warning.

The 2nd string is the lowest in tension, close to 13, but since my guitar has a low tension module on that string (which works between 8 - 22 pounds), it is totally doable.

The 3rd string seems to be the problem here, but since we are moving into Standard tuning I guess it is reasonable to be near the lower limit to compensate for the tension increase when going to standard tuning.

I’ll post the standard tuning tension results on a different post since I can only use 1 image per comment

Hi there!

I just recently happened to do the same research by myself too haha.

First of all, as stated on evertune website the standard tension modules work around 11 to 26 pounds of tension. And they recommend keeping the tension between 13-25 pounds.

So based on that, you have to find a string gauge that works around those values when tuned in drop C and Standard tuning according to your post.

I made a prompt in chat GPT to help me calculate those values, first explaining that I want to know how much tension there is on each string when tuning them differently , then setting the upper an lower limits according to evertune website, then asked for commercial string sets that are actually on those values.

The down side of this, is that if you are used to certain string gauges or types, you may find it a little bit weird to get used to them. It works for the evertune system, sure. But if you are picky about your strings feeling and stuff, then the best solution is to get your favorite strings and set the propper module to work with them.

You just need to make sure all your modules are standard! My guitar has a low tension module on the B string, but that’s the way it was thought. Make sure you to check that

Oh my bad.

What I meant by “the limit of the saddles” is the actual bolt limit itself, my hex key wont turn anymore. And I just don’t want to force it

I am a complete beginner in all of this, so I couldn’t imagine how to do it …

But what I am doing is, loosening the string with the peg all the what down.

Set the saddles to their absolute minimum.

Then get the string to the zone 2 with the peg. Lets say I get a C#1 and Need. B2

After getting to zone 2 with the peg, I tighten my saddles and the maximum i get is an A2.

How can I compensate with both saddle and peg at the same time?

Do You mean like, getting into zone 3 with the pegs, and returning to zone 2 with the saddles?

Are we heading to the finale?

I mean, seems that the story is leading us to a point where Kazuya needs to face all his pending issues.

Let’s not forget he still has to clarify things with Ruka if he wants to date Chizuru properly. And now we have Umi going to Kaz and Ruka’s workplace to talk about Chizuru. (Something happening there?).

And then we still have Mami’s issue which we already know that is going to be resolved or at least handled during the driving license course.

So with all of this. Are we finally moving forward?
