Yep totally understood! Space was my primary concern when I originally posted. I only have space for one guitar so I want to make it a good one. ---

I know this has become a general seven-string guitar thread, but I do have a question. If I wanted my guitar to be able to handle Drop A#/Drop A/ with the bottom B-B strings or Drop D#/Drop D with the top 6 strings (E-E), what string gauges or type would I be looking at? ---

depends on your scale length, if standard length I’d once again recommend the Dunlop Heavy Core set as they are specifically made for down tuning on 7 string. Any 10-60 set should do the job though 🙂 ---

Long scale guitars are better for low tunning. With a short scale you must have bigger strings . Don’t forget to adjust the neck after this. ---

Well aren’t you in luck. I happened to go with a friend to Guitar Center yesterday. ![image](https://forum.jrockone.com/uploads/default/original/3X/6/2/6246cee315e98a2b0d210d3acdc5d3fd13809757.jpeg) This is what I ended up ordering. It’s currently backordered, so I don’t actually _own_ it yet. But it’s paid for in full and will be here by May. ---

I’ve been thinking about this since early January, and it took a while for me to post the topic. For me, this has taken forever! LOL. And now I have to really think of a song that uses 7 strings. Maybe something by Spiritbox that’s not too complicated to start. ---

Ugh, nothing can ever be as simple as I want them to be. I went to adjust the truss rod and intonation and I noticed _there’s a gigantic fucking chip on the back_. I had it two hours, maybe three, and I haven’t even touched it yet. Box looks like some disgruntled UPS driver kicked it. I am sending it back to the store tomorrow and scheduling a replacement. I want it delivered to me on a truck with silver rims in an ironclad box that says “FRAGILE” and “TREAT AS IF IT’S BEING DELIVERED TO A PSYCHO WHO KNOWS WHERE YOU LIVE”. I AM NOT IN THE MOOD RIGHT NOW ☹ ![image](https://forum.jrockone.com/uploads/default/original/3X/a/c/ac59b08f7da2746438fcf23ef76fa3c4dfbfb283.jpeg) ![IMG_20220402_201058](https://forum.jrockone.com/uploads/default/original/3X/3/8/38203896c122fb7455b223d1bf02209e4e86cff4.jpeg) ---

ah always a gamble if shipping without a hardcase \>.\< worth the extra cash often. ---

Return has been processed. The new one should come straight from Ibanez, but I’ll have to wait a few weeks. The new shipping date is the same as the old shipping date, so maybe I’ll get lucky and get an update in a few days. I did ask if they could put it in a hard case and the Guitar Center tech said they can’t because they’re not the ones that are gonna handle it, but thanks for that suggestion @Ghostpepper!
