i did it once on my first homegrown Tele, put 12's on there and loved it! i was smitten by the "big" sound. unfortunately, the bassman and rhythm player said, "man, you're nuts if you think i'm doing that!" even the drummer thought i had a screw loose. so that was that.

if i was in a horn-driven band, i'd consider doing it again, because i loves them open strings ... but the odds on that are slim as a razor blade.
