Heaviest string gauge for an Axis SS?

[Slurpyjane]

Thinking about picking up an Axis SS and usually play pretty heavy gauge strings (11,15,19,36,42,52). Just wondering if there would be any issues with these on the Axis SS? Thinking about the neck, nut, etc... as well as string spacing and so forth. Thoughts?

As long as you set it up, it will be fine. Changing gauges usually requires you to re-set the intonation, adjust the truss rod. You may need to adjust the trem claw too, adding tension from larger strings may lift the bridge, or change the balance if you have the bridge set to float.
