what singles would be the absolute best for a 6 string gibson scale neck? It's a tuning I've never used. I have used 12's for tuning down to B and C standard but it seems like it might not be a very good idea to just tune 12's all willynilly.

thanks.

Is this the same as a "drop C" tuning, as discussed here?:

I don't mess with C tunings, but hopefully some of the veteran axe players on here will have some good advice.

Devin is a great guitarist and also a D'Addario artist. Right now he is using the EXL140 10-52 set on his C tuned guitars. hope this helps.
