Plus I'm most comfortable on 25.5" or higher.
It's a lot easier to keep my playing cleaner with the extra tension. I pick really fuckin' hard.
Sure, I could just get a way thicker low B string but does B really need to sound that much more massive?
I agree. I have two 7s. One is 27" and the other is 26.5". I don't like anything below 26.5" on a 7-string to give me proper tension. My 27" uses 9-46 and a 56 low B, where as my 26.5 uses 10-46 and a 59 or 60 low B.
