OW MY FINGERS. No soloing on the low 4 strings, and a F# barre is horribly out of tune. I've had this guage on my guitar since last summer, so my fingers should be lovely buff by now. Tone is awesome as well.
ARGH, WHY WON'T THEY STAND STILL ON THE FRETBOARD?! Mega buzz, the strings fly around by the lightest touch; making a decent palm mute on the low B is almost impossible. Tone is dreadful and neither tr00, kvlt or br00tlz. On the other hand, I learned 3 sweep patterns IN A DAY with these guages. Soloing has never been this easy.
OH GLORIOUS MIDDLE WAY. It pisses me off to no end that NOBODY makes a single string between 60" and 65". Only way to get those is buying a seriously expensive baritone set, and throw out the rest of the useless strings. a 64 would have been COMPLETELY PERFECT, but then again, I probably wouldn't feel the 40 grams of tension difference
If the tension somehow still bothers me, I'll probably change the 28" D down to a 26", and bring it down to 62.56kg.
I'm off to add the 65" and the 17" to my set, and I'll check back to tell if my hypothesis was right
