EXL148 : Great strings for drop tuners
I've only recently tried these strings out, since i needed some more mass and tightness compared to the Daddario EXL117's (.11-.56)
Let me start by saying that i was surprised at how these strings felt when the guitar was all adjusted and tuned up.
I'm currently using these string in Drop C on a 25.5 scale length guitar, and they're really tight on there, but not so much that you feel like you're struggling to play.
They are a step up from the EXL117's indeed, and i'd even feel safe to use these strings for even lower tunings like Drop B or even C standard.
I should mention that i play mostly metal, so having thick and chunky strings really adds a nice feel and sound to it.
In the end, i can highly recommend these strings if you're looking for some meaty strings for drop tunings, or a step up from Daddarios EXL177's, like me.
Try them, and you surely wont be disappointed.
