Musician - Firefighter - Occasionally worth a closer look
Go ahead. Make me prove it
I would have originally said that Guitars come from the factory a certain way, and that vision should be honored to some extent. If possible, restring it once or twice with the factory gauge strings and live with the designers vision of what the guitar should be. There is merit there. But after that, just put tens on. On everything. The jazz boxes, Strats, Teles, Gibsons and acoustics. I will admit to having 12s on my Ovation, but forget them on anything else acoustic. Maybe 11’s, but 10’s.
I came from a different era where Big Stubbies and metal picks dominated my early years. I like big picks. I have big hands. I like using my hands the most. But that is how I play sitting down in private. Out in these streets I have a new plan.
