7 string is a gateway drug for an 8 string :lol:

We shall see!

I'm used to gateway drugs, the 339 led me to 2 LPs (even though I'd owned an LP many, many years ago)!

I don't know...I'm just not a F-hole guy. My Casino is a fine guitar and all, but I don't play it much.

C'mon, furtkamp, you've gotta live up to that banner in your sig.

A4 is tough at 25.5"

I played in DADGBEG for years in a tech metal band since we couldn't get a stable A that wouldn't break under aggressive playing. Sounds like you're not having issues though?

I'm still running with my initial 'test' tuning at this point - BEADGBA, because I liked the low B as well.
