you can but it may require routing the guitar body like how kirk hammet has ESP Guitars that are strat style but under the pick guard he probably has whats called swimming pool routing.
seriously though I could pick ups on anything in my room i think could support 6 strings and wire pickips to it.... even my sword! , no seriously, i've seen people make guitars out of old nintendos.. anything is possible.
Well yes you can. BUT the guitar may need routing so that the P90 can fit in. Don't forget this will lessen the resale value of the fender.
yes and you can put them on a 7 string or even a bass too.. strings are strings.
yeah seriously a bass , its called piccolo strings.
no with floyd roses you apparently can but its a waste of money , the pickups and all the other electronics wont produce the proper sound. The alternative is silk and steel strings of course, not EXACTLY nylon but recorded the same guitar part with electric strings (GHS) to D'Addario silk and steel i heard a huge difference.
It is down to personal preference as to which strings are best for an archtop guitar. Chromes and flatwound strings are both popular. Light gauge strings are preferable as they put less pressure on the neck.
generally no if you take off guitar strings after they have been on there for a while and tuned they would have stretched so if you take them off they will lose there tension and you will have trouble tuning your guitar so its best just to clean your guitar when you need to change the strings
your going to need to remove the strings, and the piece that the strings are attached two at the bottom of the guitar. Other than that, it is perfectly possible.
It is not recommended since they are of different gauges and are made of different material.
Of course you can. You can also put Fender strings on a Gibson. Nothing bad will happen. Just make any necessary truss rod adjustments if you are putting different gauge strings on a guitar.
no any other brand of guitar will self-destruct because it can't handle the awesomeness of fender strings
I've never heard of anyone washing their guitar strings. You have to go out and buy new strings, and put them in.

this is a hard answer as Gibson owns so many companies but put simply if it doesn't say gibson on the headstock or epiphone it isnt straight up gibson. Fender Jackson any death metal shape by Dean , BC Rich , LTD and so on are a few brands that aren't gibson but make great guitars

YES IT DOES but if your guitar starts off with metal strings keep to metal strings.if you start to use nilon your guitar neck will eventuly weaken. if your guitar starts off with nilon strings NEVER EVER put metal strings on on it. your guitar neck will not be able to widstand the presure and your neck will sink there for stuffing your guitar.

They will ruin the instrument.
Yes, no problem. Martin strings can be used on almost any acoustic guitar.
