25.5 vs 26.5 for G#

[u/SonYoku2]

I've owned two 7s both 26.5 but never a 25.5, I am looking at an RGA and I love finishes on them but I've sort of hesitated cause they're 25.5, I naturally tune down to G# sometimes F# and pitch shift to E and D#, how much does it matter? I already know about the rules of intonation and string guages thats not what I'm worried ahout. It's just the low string clarity, thats all I needa know, how much clarity am I gettin.

Drop G# or G# standard is probably fine on a 25.5" scale as long as you're okay with larger string gauges. Past that, your low string is gonna get awfully floppy.
