So I've been using Earnie Ball skinny top/ heavy bottoms (essentially 10-52), decent but as with any strings on a neck this short the highs still feel awful floppy.
I noticed that EB makes drop tuned sized strings, one is 11-54, one is 12-56 (http://www.musiciansfriend.com/navigati ... l+drop&st=)
Since the problems of such a shortscale neck are essentially the same as the problems of a drop tuning (less string tension) do you think it would be a good idea to try these to get a tighter feel out of the action, if so which size should I try? Or do you think these are just too thick.
I'm a strummer not a noodler so difficult string bending isn't too much of an issue here.
