    i use the earnie ball EB2715 10-52 Cobalt Skinny Top Heavy Bottom Slinky. it work very good with drop C. maybe because the cobald strings give more brightness, this is because i like the sound my original pickups. to stay better in tune i use locking tuners. maybe in future i try the 9-48 for even more better bend because less tension on strings. but this small guitar is strong enough to keep the 10-52 in tune many days

  • @coxscorner

    Ask this question on another video looking for opinions. Would this guitar would handle upgrades like a new bridge floyd rose tremolo system or would I just be better off saving for a more expensive RRXMG. The reason I ask is it would be easier on the wallet to do upgrades a little at a time rather than shell out 700 plus dollars all at once. Also the tone on this does sound good.

    • @BigHairyGuitars
      @BigHairyGuitars  7 лет назад +2

      I don't think you'll be happy with the result. I would assume that a proper installation of a Floyd would cost at least $400. You can get a Jackson JS Series Rhoads JS32 Electric Guitar (with Floyd from factory) for about $299.
