Can anyone post the gauge of a b-string tuned guitar?
like .009,.011...you know.
They don´t sell too many kinds of string here in Chile, so I have to start looking for them in different places.
Thanks.

That doesn't list the specific gauges, but you should be able to deduce them from the Elixir Light gauges and the instructions there.

It says the gauge on there, but it depends on how thick of strings your getting. More than likely whatever the gauge the B string is, that's going to be the same gauge string that you will need to put where the High E will be missing. I think that's it, but someone correct me if I'm wrong. Jared has up to use Light Strings, and the B string needs to be .016 gauge, so I would go with that :-)
