Question: Replace Luke frets for Jumbo ?

Question: Replace Luke frets for Jumbo ?

Hi guys,

I’m a proud owner of a Luke I, II and III. My LIII is my main guitar and will probably be for a long time.
I started thinking about refretting it, but with jumbo frets. I do love the feeling of jumbo, especially the control it offers while bending.

My question is : will jumbo frets affect the tone so much that I won’t recognise my guitar ? The LIII already has a quite bright tone, so will jumbo make it so bright that it won’t be harmonious anymore ?
And, even more important to me, does that kind of change is morally ok ? I mean, the guitar is made after “the Master” specs, so changing such an important element could make the guitar loose its “soul”.
