I'm about to restring my trusty Dual Pro after having the pickups regaussed by our pal Rick Aiello. I've been using these tunings:
E13th C6th
1. G# .011 1. G .012
2. E .014 2. E .014
3. C# .017 3. C .017
4. B .020 4. A .022
5. G# .024W 5. G .026W
6. E .030W 6. E .030W
7. D .034W 7. C .036W
8. B .036W 8. A .042W
Any suggestions on different gauges for the 22.5" scale? I want to keep to these intervals. (I use E to low F on my Sierra single neck). Many thanks!

Hey Mark I made some adjustments to your guage chart for what I personally suggest for that scale length....Mainly on bar pressure and string tension for proper intonation.
E13th C6th
1. G# .012 1. G .012
2. E .015 2. E .015
3. C# .018 3. C .018
4. B .022 4. A .022
5. G# .024W 5. G .026W
6. E .034W 6. E .030W
7. D .038W 7. C .036W
8. B .042W 8. A .042W

Hey Ricky, how far off would the gauges be with those tunings on a 24" scale?
