I hate this. I tend to leave my strings a little longer to avoid the thumb-poke.
Rich Kirkpatrick · 2 years ago

Makes you feel like a hard rocker when you bleed for your music.

Ouch!!! I hate it when that happens! It feels like it's going all the way to the bone!

I know you just wanted to give the Takamine some props with that photo... don't kid yourself... ;)

Define 'regular,' like every time you restring? YES!
I'm so glad you posted this, I feel 'normal!'

Yeah Eric I'm still stoked about the Takamine - still holding out while everyone jumps aboard the Taylor train. I will admit that Travis' and Rob Coblentz's 700 series sound great, but who has that kind of cash?

And yes, I do this almost every time I change strings even though I try my darndest not to! GRRRRRRR!

Aye!
Far more often than I'd like to admit.
