Strat or tele 7 string?

[PJSprog]

I played a friend's once. It's like playing a 5- or 6-string bass, and having to remember that the top string is not an E. A little odd at first, but you get used to it quickly. (I've been playing a 6-string bass since '03, and now a 4-stringer feels weird to me.)

I've just strung my P Bass ( PBH-4 ) BEAD and moving the strings across one certainly does mess with the muscle memory.

E - E on the VI when I had it wasn't a problem

I've lately been thinking about changing my 6-string bass to E - E, instead of the B - C that it's always been. It worked when I played in cover bands and didn't have to do the drop D tuning. However, in my original music, I just don't use that low B string. Frankly, I never really cared for it, neither the feel nor the tone.
