Sudden urge to play a 7-string. The Ibanez RGD7421 was within reach. Tuned to C# but the bottom two strings were floppy, not really suitable for my kind of playing. Those were a set of 10s.
A quick re-string with a set of 11s + an additional .059 to make it a complete 7. The increase in tension is necessary for me because for my kind of music, I don't slow down on the bottom strings. Floppy strings just kill clarity. By the way, they don't sell .059 as a loose purchase here, it's bought online.
