My unsolicited advice: I'd stick to the Medium Taper Cores if I were you.

Also, IF you do decide to go to the lighter set, be sure and re-tune and re-adjust your neck for the lighter guage strings. As far as the lighter set changing the "wonderful tone"??? It all depends on the set-up and what you want to hear and feel with the lighter strings.
Tim, you're right on the money concerning sticking to the Medium Taper Cores. I PMed Ken, and he suggested the same thing.

That's what I'm going to do. My fingers are just a little torn up, but they're getting a lot better, and the tone I have now is what I've been looking for all my life. I'm not going backwards, no sir!!
