It sounds like you did just the reverse.
Hey, is that an Epiphone you're playing on the CFJ website? From the pickguard, the neck inlays, and what little I can see of the tailpiece, it looks like a late '30s - mid '40's Broadway.
They're great guitars. String 'em heavy and high and they really growl. I use GHS White Bronze on mine - it gives a 'near bright bronze' sound, but the strings last forever and there is enough metalic content to use with a PAF pickup if you want to. (though I took my pickup off and now play it acoustic-only)
