I'm thinking about trying a set of Aquila Nylguts on a Martin 0XK, but I'm concerned about the 0XK's bridge. It looks like the string slots on the bridge are cut too narrow to accomodate the thicker Aquila strings, and I'm a bit worried about splintering the slots. Anyone have any experience in this area?
Before anyone asks why I would consider putting Aquilas on an 0XK...
1. I'm curious about how that might sound.
2. Martin strings seem to be wearing out and going dead too quickly. They're only lasting around 2 months. I have some Aquila Nylguts on 3 other ukuleles that still sound bright after 2 years of fairly heavy playing.
