I have a new 712-12 Fret with stock HD Lights. When I auditioned the guitar before ordering mine, I heard more balance and bass. When I received mine, it sounded less dynamic and with less bass.
I am thinking about trying the Elixir light-mediums (12-56). The string tension is 176 vs. 174 with the HD lights. Has anyone tried these? If so, what was your expirience with the tone? I'm looking for a balanced tone with more bass.
