I use drop C tuning,I tried Beefy slinky(11、15、22、30、42、54)and found that 2nd and 3rd string are too heavy for bending。I think 11、14、18、30、42、54 would be a better choice。Thank you。
Ming I also play heavy gauge strings with my tuning preference in Drop C. Very aware of your concern have you ever tried playing the Skinny Top Heavy Bottom set? Its very close to size you wish for and they are my personal second choice.
