In my limited (thankfully) experience of putting overly-heavy strings on a guitar that shouldn't use them, the instrument can sound fantastic but the well-being of the guitar can be seriously compromised. It's been ages since I've made a mistake like that and, even then, I recognized it pretty quickly. These days, I actually prefer the feel and tone of lighter strings on most of my instruments so it's a non-issue.

I ran heavies (as in the real heavies) for a while back in the 70s. While I never found they gave my guitar a problem, I used to bend a lot more on acoustic. I gave em up when a fingertip split to the bleeding point. That laid me up for a week or so and the heavies came off. hunter |
