heavier strings and earvana nut

Updated

My Ltd EC400vf came with 10-46 strings and I'd like to go heavier. Has anyone had experience with putting heavier strings on the standard earvana nut? does it pinch the strings, requiring a file? thanks rlk

Ive went to a 12-56 before on a earvanna and had no problems.

wanted to put 12-56 on an ex400 = but, no chance without modifying :( but won´t ruin my nut for that. I guess 11 would go.

What do yous tune in. I tune to Standard D and have 10-46 and get a fair bit of buzz out of the lower strings. Maybe i should go an even fatter guage??

i was thinking 11-52s. sounds like it's a go then.

I stuck some 11-48's with ease

the 12-56's needed some slight filing to fit properly.
