Hey all, got locked out due to a software glitch. Dave sorted it out for me. Hope all is well.


It's better now that you're hangin' with us at the clubhouse again, my friend! I hope you've been ticklin' those 8's in the meantime!

Have you thought about trying those 7's, like these?

As the story goes, Robert Fripp was experimenting with an All 5ths tuning, using 7s for the lightest string.  But like you experienced, they kept breaking on him.  He tried 8s and altered the tuning, and New Standard Tuning (CGDAEG) was born.

 

Also, welcome back!

Ya HAD ta send me down an internet rabbit-hole of tunings, pitches, string-gauges, string materials, scale-lengths... weird science- only, unfortunately, Kelly LeBrock did NOT materialize with a fanned-fret, multi-scale guitar... !! :crazy:  (Maybe it'd be more befitting this diabolical subject if I conjured a Devilish Elizabeth Hurley wielding Jack Butler's- ehr, I mean, Steve Vai's guitar... )

But, I digress. You know I do.  ;)  :D
