neck tension and string change


well, this is my first question here...

I own a rg 7321 which is strung with a set of 11-60, sll strings tuned down a whole step. I absolutely love the tone, but it's killing my hands. to much tension for bending strings... I bend a lot and also I need a heavier attack (I 've two 6 strings electrics with .9 , too much difference ) I'd like to change those 11's for a set of 10's , tuned a whole step back. will the neck change it's relief if I do that?

thanks anyway for paying attention

Re: neck tension and string change


dont worry about it. If you notice a difference just take a peek down the neck and make the necessary tweaks. It's not like it's gonna twist like a pretzel
