8 Guitar Strings help? (Electric)?
I need some help about 8 String guitars and string sizes?
I wanna play some songs on my Six String ibanez, thats in 8 string tuning, would It be easier if i just brought a pack of 8 string guitar strings and chucked them on my Ibanez? (IC200)
Or will there be problems if this happens? Or can I just get 7 string guitar strings and do the same?
Please help, thanks in advance 
8 string guitars instead of going higher in pitch, the strings go deeper. the 7th string is a higher pitch than the 6th, offering more on the high end. But 8 strings have a deeper range, therefore being able to near enough play bass notes on the top string.
You probably can put the strings on your guitar but you're gonna be missing the higher end strings which offer the versatility and the ability to play chords.
