Hi, because I play exlusively heavy riffs my Ibanez and rarely (if ever) play chords of more than 3 or 4 strings, I'm thinking of removing the 2 highest strings (B and E, in std tuning).
The MAIN reason for this is that during some complex riffs I often brush / catch the highest 2 strings with my inner (left) palm which creates an audible (unwanted) string noise. Please, no suggestions of "better technique!" Ha ha ha...
So, becuase my Ibanez is a hard-tail, and becuase I NEVER use the highest 2 strings on that particular guitar (I'm lucky enough to have a selection of guitar for various other styles of playing), I'm wondering if by removing the 2 strings, will it warp / twist the (bolt on) neck? Anyone hhad this or hear dof it?
