I can't remember the last time I changed string guages, so just I've just replaced the usual 9-42's with 9-46's and couldn't tune up. The bridge was lifting, so I adjusted the two screws to bring it back down and started tuning to open D. I can't get the 2 lightest strings to tune properly. Should it be D, A, D, F, A, D or D, G, C, F, A, D? I watched a youtube video which suggests the first method, but also says fretting is required on the 3rd lightest string at the 5th fret as apposed to the 3rd fret when tuning to Open E. Someone please educate me.

:dunno:. I just wanted to play at a lower tuning than constantly setting a pitch shifter on my Boss GT-10 to -2 semitones and consequently dropping the output level (more processing = lower output).Fuck ebay, fuck paypal

Got rid of the EB Hybrid 9-46 set, changed to S.I.T 10-46 guage. Got the tuning I wanted. But WTF do they keep jumping out of the saddles everytime I bend the strings or pull up the trem bar? Yes, I did tighten those trem bolts.Fuck ebay, fuck paypal
