Yah
then, if i could find a Low E string in the 58 Gauge, it would be kinda perfect i think
If not,i´ll have to try out that 60´S low E.

iv dean markley 11-52 tuned down a step and a half and it works perfectly, i used to use 11's in standard cuz i liked tight tension but recently been using smaller strings, im looking to try the ghs boomers low 11-53 with a thicker core.

plus just thought id throw this in, i cant stand ernie ball, just not my thing
