Pete next time you change them out think about the tone benefits of a thicker gage string. I’ve gone from 10’s to 11’s to11.5’s to 12 and once in awhile 12.5’s. For me the tone benefits of a heavier gage just sounds fuller to me. As I said earlier I start the heavier gage string down a full tone to D,G,C,F,A, D and increase it up a half tone every week or so when I walk up to thicker strings. The finger tips seem to be able to put up with the change that way. You can always capo up 2 frets when playing with other pickers.
