I've been playing with one less string lately

Wit the exception of the Bb part (lowest i'd go is A), i agree with everything else here

Since we're eall dirty confessional whores, I don't really play my seven much right now. Partly because my RG7420 exploded and I was too scared to play my S7, and partly because my new band is all sixes (although tuned to Drop B). My sideproject, Carthago Delenda est, a sort of post-rock/sludge band is using sevens right now but thats only until I find the guitar I'm on the hunt for right now: Maple-necked Japanese FenderTele custom in 3TS.

90% of what I do nowadays is on my 6-string Steinberger Synapse baritone. Its GDGCEA with a wound third... .022" I think.
