so it's different? i use 12's on my acoustic. it won't be the same right, cause i'm trying to work on some of the huge bends and there's no way i could do it w/ 12's if the tension is the same as w/ acoustic strings

you'll be money with the 12s on your electric. good way to build the strength in your fingers.
