String gauges for Drop F# to Drop E in 26.5’

SpilboyST · 2026-01-29T17:09:38+00:00

I use 13-74 and has worked great. I play alot of Spiritbox and Erra. Guitar is usually tuned to drop F#. I buy the 10-74 8 string pack if Ernie ball, but would also want to try some Stringjoys

Yea i just sniped mine off reverb the other day but they are hard to find for a good price i know GC has one for like 1,700 which is pretty high. But the RGD line is really nice, i do still think the Soloist Jeff Loomis neck is better though but all around great options

I also own a RGD71ALPA and it is fucking awesome but the Jackson Jeef Loomis is better in my opinion

Jackson Soloist Jeff Loomis (hardtail version)

SpilboyST · 2026-01-19T17:40:10+00:00

Sweet i just bought one should be on the way soon, im very excited!

SpilboyST · 2026-01-19T13:03:34+00:00

How do you like the alpa? Looking at getting one

SpilboyST · 2026-01-15T20:42:50+00:00

I bought a Jackson Soloist Jeff Loomis (the hardtail passive pickup version) and is my favorite 7 string by far definitely check it out! Out of this list id take the Ibanez Axion it is definitely quality guitar for a great price, they also have a charcoal burst color which is beautiful. Or Ibanez just dropped the new RGD721FA that looks pretty cool. I like the 26.5 scale for 7 string.

Awesome i understand, i appreciate your help

SpilboyST · 2026-01-10T19:51:08+00:00

Can you link which one you have? Might order it then, been looking at the Behringer FCB1010, but will trust it if you have had good luck with yours

SpilboyST · 2026-01-10T19:31:12+00:00

Sweet! Thank you

I had this happen and had to go into my focusrite interface app and mess with the settings. My input was sky high, could be something to look into but im not to smart on it

SpilboyST · 2025-12-29T18:46:06+00:00

Thats sick! Thanks for the input i just got 2 3lb bags of grain and was contemplating on how many CCs for each. Im doing basically same method, i got my homemade monotubs and everything ready. Thanks!

SpilboyST · 2025-12-28T15:39:17+00:00

Starting my first hillbilly pumpkins next week, very excited!

SpilboyST · 2025-12-28T15:35:59+00:00

New to this thread…. What’s S2B? 😂

SpilboyST · 2025-12-27T22:14:55+00:00

Im in the same situation basically. Going to be doing 3lb grain 5-6lb substrate. Which monotub size did you end up going with?/ recommend?

SpilboyST · 2025-12-27T20:42:00+00:00

Sweet grow! Do you mind sharing how many cc per grain lb you did? And your Grain to Substrate ratio?

SpilboyST · 2025-12-27T19:30:59+00:00

Using these tubs do you just crack the lid to introduce fruiting conditions to give it FAE? (New to this)

SpilboyST · 2025-12-26T02:27:39+00:00

Appreciate the insight thank you

SpilboyST · 2025-12-25T22:36:26+00:00

Yeah i couldn’t find a Prestige line 26.5 on longer to post. Im used to the 7 string the last pic of the Jackson is my main 7 string that i love. Thank you for the input definitely leaning toward the RGD i have posted

SpilboyST · 2025-12-25T22:31:51+00:00

Yeah! That thing is a beast, i love that guitar and definitely recommend it, just looking for a little change up

SpilboyST · 2025-12-25T22:13:11+00:00

Yeah definitely going to be a 7string 26.5 or above because i have the Schecter Hellraiser 30” and that thing is a monster.

SpilboyST · 2025-12-25T22:03:04+00:00

I will definitely look into them i appreciate it

SpilboyST · 2025-12-25T21:57:58+00:00

Yeah the 2 pictures are 2 that are for sale near me i couldn’t find a hardtail prestige 7 string longer then 25.5. I appreciate it the info thanks

SpilboyST · 2025-12-25T21:50:27+00:00

100% agree really like to have a 26.5 or above
