eeeeh??

12's

I got 9's on my les paul and that shit sucks. I won't be going back to B anytime soon.

the thicker the better obviously. i have boomers 10-52 on my washburn and they were alright. just alright though.

My band covers Pride from Damageplan which is tuned in drop B, my one guitarist plays a Les Paul that he put 11's on it and the other plays a Washburn Dime 333 that he put 12's on, both sound and feel (what they say) really good. (we also do Suicide Messiah in the same tuning)

I would suggest 11's

I'd just suggest a 7 string, you're way more than capable of making good/proper use of it.

But, if I were you, I'd just opt for a heavy bottom set and not really worry too much about the high strings. Personally I'd go with maybe 11's with a high 50 or maybe even a 60 for your would-be low E. Something like that I guess.

Isn't Dime's low stuff in C#?

C# with the low string dropped to B.

Yeah man i definately wanna get a 7 string soon, there's a bunch of stuff im aching to play in that tuning. I guess i just wana put a heavy set on my old guitar to play some meshuggah haha. Although i might buy a triple xxx next week.. or i could save up some more monet and get an engl or soldano.. and then after that get a slsmg or a 7string!

edit* haha and Im dying to play some damn spawn of possession.

7 strings rule You can snag a used RG7420 or 7620 on ebay for under 500.

My RG7420 + XXX + Behringer412 (the one with the Jenses) = killer tone that I paid under 1100 for

However, if you could save up and get an Engl and a Vader 4X12 (my dream rig!) you'd have one HELL of a fucking rig
