Like giving lots of beer to Templeman, don't do it.

It's not so much the "mess" . . . it's the incessant noise . . .

With resos you want tension to drive the cones, hence most reso sets are heavier guage strings. Sliknstill and the other direction.

I was thinking about tone in asking the question. It makes complete sense that they wouldn't drive the cone well, but if they could, I think the tone would be interesting.
