Mike, Lots of valid comments here, actually, ALL valid comments. But I did tune my Gil F4 up to AEAE once for a month with no visible or audible signs of damage. I wouldn't do some of the older, lighter mandos that way however. I think that GDGD-capo-at-the-2nd-fret ideer is good. I would also follow Topher-san's suggestion to find appropriate string gauges. I keep wondering what gauges would be required to tune in EGAD tuning.
