[QUOTE="Ampoholic, post: 62358, member: 1896"] I [b]believe [/b]if you want to tune C# you need to get the guitar setup. That much slack even, with larger strings, does not provide the right amount of tension on the neck. The truss rod will need adjusting. I have 1 guitar setup for C# & C tuning, using 12-58s on it. I'm building a second guitar for dropped C# (1/2 step all, then 1 step on bigone) & D (std tuning starting in d) tunings, it will use 11s. As abaseline, I use 10-52s on my standard tuning guitars.
