What part of touring is cheap!?
I ended up going with the Ernie ball set. Can't wait to see how these work.
Thanks for all the help and info guys!

70 for F# is perfect for me, but I like them a little but loose. Never goes out of tune...but that's probably because it's a Monson.

I like those Ernie Ball Baritones too on my 6 string. If I can't find them I usually get the heavy top slinky bottoms.

Yeah dude. Monson's are magic or something. When I ordered it he set it up for open A but it just wasn't low enough
so I dropped it down. Same string gauge, haven't had to touch the intonation since I got it. The only thing I want to try is different pickups but I'm still happy as a pig in shit with it. Would love a 2nd one as well.

Strings acquired and mounted. Setup complete. Now to wait until rehearsal Sunday >=[
But first impressions are great!
