So I home-modded my Badass II

Yes, yes I know "Sublime you fool, take it to a professional!" There is a Squier P I am attempting to tune BEAD.

Well I had the needle files lying around so I increased the diameter of the string hole for the lowest (Usually E) string. I got a .130 Ernie Ball regular slinky through (eventually), while still maintaining the shape of the hole in the bridge. I got tired of the floppy B, so I replaced it with EADG tuning and the low string still sits fine.

Have I done anything wrong that I might be missing, or did I luck out on the home modification?
