Wow! Sweet axe, and it looks like it’s been well cared for. But if she sounds “...massive, very full and rich”....with the 9s that are on it, why change?
I would just worry about putting a heavier gauge string on an older 12 string guitar, that’s all. Especially if she already sings out with the 9s!
Just my opinion, of course, but keep the 9 s on it for awhile and see if you don’t adapt to them.
Finally got a new set of EJ41s in the mail today so I am going to take your advice and restring it with the 9s. I have never owned a Guild 12 string before so does anyone have advice on changing them and keeping the neck stable as possible? When I put the 10s on I took all the strings off to be able to dress the frets and oil the fretboard. I don't want to shock the neck again so any suggestions would be a great help.
