I went to restring my acoustic guitar today for the first time. Unfortunately, I noticed after removing all the strings that they are electric strings and not acoustic. Currently I got as far as putting the low E string back on the guitar. My question is this: If I leave that one string on the guitar until tomorrow evening, will that be enough tension to prevent any sort of problem of not having all 6 strings on the guitar? I have read about guitars with no strings getting warped and am concerned about this situation, since I can't get to a guitar shop until tomorrow after work.

I'd still use the new strings... but that's 'cause I'm an idiot at times :D But having it on for one day shouldn't be a problem dude :)
