There is no set rule about it.

I'll give it a go when I swap the strings out....

I seem to recall it makes strings slinkier. It also provides a wider rest for the palm. It the string ends poke or scratches you, you can add an extra string ball before you string the guitar. I don't do it anymore with EB; just make sure the ends are poking down when you bend the string around the stop tail.

I have the extra ball ends on the LP, so I will do the same with the ES, it just makes sense to keep them the same.

I like the wrap vibe, so it's here to stay, same as the LP. IF you get to the Midlands when you visit, give me a shout, I will get the beers in!

Not sure where we will be venturing to. I want to see more than just London.

There are some very nice parts of our little country, to be sure. Some of the villages not too far from London are very picturesque.
