Is this good for Drop c tuning? My guitar is a 25.5 scale length.

Lot of people like 11, and some like 12's. As far as your guitar goes, it’s a good idea to have it set-up for drop C. Since you’re tuning everything down a whole step (or more in the case of your low string), you may run into issues with a guitar set-up for standard. Your string tension will drop, meaning your strings will feel floppy. You also might have issues with strong/fret buzz as well due to the tension change.

Is this product easy to use?

Not sure what you mean by easy to use. They install like any other string. I use them on both my acoustic and electric guitars and I am very satisfied with their sound and playability. Hope that helps.

Can I customize the gauges via Amazon?

Thanks for reaching out Mick! No customization is available through Amazon, we only offer a limited selection of our string gauges here.

Is this the right gauge for my godin electric jazz guitar? i've been playing d'addarios 12-52. i like a mellow sound if i can get one?

These strings will work on your guitar. These are nice strings. These are 10-48 and will be a LOT lighter than the 12-52 you have been using. If you stick with same gauge, you should be happy. If you are dropping that far down, you will probably need to adjust your truss rod and intonation. Jazzers looking for a mellow tone will often go with nickel flat wound stings as opposed to round wounds. These are round wounds. It all depends what you are looking for.

Last longer than Ernie Balls...

I just don't know if it's the top wrapping on my bridge or these strings have extra longevity - but I like them! Was on Ernie Balls for years and now reluctant to go back.

Seriously, the Best

Best strings. Don’t think I’ll go back to NYXLs after these. Using the 10-48 set in D standard on my Jackson is just perfection.
