Oh I'll definitely stick with them for a while. Now that they're on, they're on.
I'll mention another thing too. I was a wee bit freaked out as the strings tightened, one by one. This guitar makes all sorts of different noises (some quite delicate) compared to my old 1" Poly coated, mahogany Eko/anchor. Now it's all in tune & stable I'm happy to just leave it be. I'll sleep on it, pick it up in the morning, maybe tweak the tuning a tiny bit & I'll be golden.
Last observation - The resonance coming off the top of this guitar is amazing. My old guitar sounded amazing even though it defied logic (bolt-on neck, adjustable bridge & laminated top) but my god I can totally tell the difference now. This D50 sustains for way longer & the depth of tone is just phenomenal. It's way richer, deeper & more articulate.
