Compensations may need to be made if you plan to change string gauges. Modifications of the specifications can be made (within limited parameters) to adjust for player application (how hard the player picks or frets the guitar), or other considerations. Note: These are minimum specifications, meant to guide you, not to be taken as hard and fast rules. Always refer to your Jackson/Charvel owner's manual for additional information and/or instruction.
