I'll get these for you when I get home from work. I DO remember that the 1st string is an .012, tho, and the heaviest is an .036 (Bb, for a G on bottom, need about .042). |

Well, one day late, but (from the top):
G - .012
E - .014
C - .018
A - .020
G - .024
E - .030
C - .036
Bb/C#/A -040 (A - .042, if you want to go down to G or lower)
I use the .040 on my Stringmaster C13 neck and all my 8 strings. For a six string, leave out the high G and the low C; that's what Bobby Ingano, Henry Allen and Alan Akaka use. |
