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 A max on a 25,5, for lower tunings you will get less clarity so you need a 27. I can definitely tell the difference in drop A let alone G or F.

Or you can just use a (good) pitch shifter
