Chet Atkins CE/CEC

I dug my old CE out today. Almost fell in love again. I've hardly ever played it so don't know much about nylon strings. Are light strings OK for it, or do they have to be normal or hard to sound good?

 

One thing I noticed is the thickness of the neck compared to my PRS. It felt like a baseball bat. Does anyone know the neck radius of them? Also, it has a 25.5" scale compared to my 25" PRS. Aren't longer scales supposed to be harder to play?

 

It sure has a different feel than I'm used to. I bought it years ago after I heard Chet's Sails album but never got around to playing it much.

 

All comments appreciated!!
