14–79 gauge range
The set runs from a .014 first string to a .079 seventh string.

Independent shopping perspective
For seven-string electric guitar, the 800-7 Black Jazz Tapes combine black nylon tape winding over a hexagonal core with a 14–79 gauge range. The tape-wound strings are made flat and exceptionally smooth, with a warm jazz voice and no finger noise described for the set. One construction detail matters when restringing: the seventh string departs from the tape-wound design and uses stainless-steel roundwound construction.
