can I use ?

hello.. I want to know can I use 10-th strings on my musicman axis?

10's are fine. You may need to make some minor adjustments to the truss rod and/or tremolo tension, but nothing major.

or intonation adjustments, I think.
and might need to add one more spring.

why that?

why that?

Or just screw down the clamp a bit more. Higher gauge means higher tension on the springs.

I run 9's on the Axis and 10's on the supersport.

I have 11's on my Axis SS. Plays awesome! 10's on my EVH, plays awesome too!

I use 10s on everything in my signature (....except the SR5....).

Hehehe - hey Jason - I suppose it is, and there is another one missing from that signature, too - to appear in a post soon.....

...and I just restrung it with 10s as well, by the way......

 

[Tim O'Sullivan]

10's all the way for me!

Denis, you can use whatever string gauge you want. Just bare in mind that you will need to adjust tension, truss rod and intonation. As someone said before - it's really minor, especially when we're talking Music Man - the easiest guitar to adjust on planet Earth

I personally use 9-42 to standard tuning. When I lower it I go one step forward, for example D standard is 10-46. If I went to C standard I would use 11-48 or 11-54. I like a little floppy feeling plus bedning is a charm!

Take care and hav fun with your EBMM!
