I have a set of Kalium strings on my Bass VI guitar that are *perfect* and I have absolutely no idea what gauge they are nor how the hell I could measure them short of buying a string gauge measuring tool of some kind.
Ok, I hear you but, ehem, guitars use fractions of inches as in 75 gauge is 0.075". Calipers I find are metric when they get that small because like...what real scientist is measuring shit that small in inches?
