Can I change my acoustic guitar strings from nylon to steel?

My acoustic guitar was my first guitar and I got a very long time ago, but I haven't changed the strings yet at all. Anyway it has nylon strings and I would much prefer the sound & feel of steel strings so I was wondering if I can simply change my guitar strings from nylon to steel or would a lot of adjustment or a completely new guitar be necissary?


Answer
If you want to ruin the guitar, then be my guest and put some steel on that baby. Seriously, forget it. Steel strings are designed for acoustic steel string guitars which are built to withstand and work with this far greater tension.

The basses you have on now is nylon core with a thin metal winding. The total tension in this set is only a fraction of the tension in a set of steel strings.

You will need another guitar if you want to have steel, I'm afraid.
