I saw in a mag recently this Gibson Les Paul that was stringed wierd. Through the stop tail piece thingy, he put the strings in backwards, then they wrapped over top of it, then onto the bridge, etc. He said when he had the piece lowered right to the body, it increased the bass response performance. I am debating whether this is something to try or not....I mean, you'd be able to tell due to the gold on my hardware being marked that I tried this...any ideas/thoughts/past experience? Thanks guys.
