Description
Dropping to 7 strings shouldn’t mean sacrificing punch on the low end, and that’s exactly the problem GHS solved with this Boomers 7-String set. GHS worked directly with extended-range players to stretch the Boomers formula down into territory a standard 6-string set was never built for, so you get the same snap and sustain you already know, now with a low string that actually holds its own.
This is the Medium Heavy gauge configuration (GB7MH), running .011-.064 across the set:
- 011
- 014
- 018
- DY28
- DY38
- DY48
- DY64
The heavier gauges on the wound strings give that 7th string real definition instead of a floppy, undefined rumble – crucial if you’re detuning for extra weight or just want a wider tonal spread without losing clarity. Roundwound construction keeps the classic Boomers brightness and bite intact string to string, so your riffs and chords translate cleanly whether you’re playing clean or slamming into distortion.
If your current 7-string set feels dead under the bridge pickup or the low string won’t stay in tune under pressure, this is your reset button. Fresh strings change everything – restring, retune, and feel the difference the first time you dig in.
