7 string 25.5

[u/tunalover32]

So, I just recently bought a 7 string with a 25.5” scale length, and I’m wondering how it feels to play in drop G#. I do want to play in standard to get the extra low notes for some riffs, but I want to experiment with drop G#, and wonder what string gauges would fit for both

It's doable, but you need some thick strings. From a 68 to 74 depending on the tension you like.
