FWIW, I have a Dano Hodad strung with .11 flats, and so far (3
months) it hasn't shown any signs of neck warping, etc. Amazingly, I
didn't have to adjust the truss rod at all (I think the factory
strings were .10's) - no buzzing or anything, either. The intonation
is pretty good, too - go figure . . . I'm thinking about going
to .12's on my next string change.
Answering the gear question:
-Dano Hodad w/ trem - .11 flats
-Route 101 "Solimar" (strat knock-off) - .10 roundwound
-Fender RI reverb tank with NOS tubes with 6K6 instead of 6V6
-Fender Cybertwin using a Blackface-type setting (ducking tomatoes
from equipment purists . . . )
Interestingly, the Dano produces a *lot more* treble through the
tank - it can be really piercing at times! I might try a 12AT7
instead of the 12AX7 in the tank to ease that. But it sounds
good . . .
