I hate putting new strings on my gutiars.
 

i need to hire a fucking roadie or something to do this shit for me.

i don't feel like sitting here for the next hour and a half stringing up 5 guitars.

damn.

Yup it's a pain... esp the guitars with a floating trem

i stopped using floating trems years ago. too many bells and whistles, and like you said a real fucking pain to restring.

I've played in a band for over 10 years, and been on the road a lot, so know your feeling! But nothing is better than playing on some new fresh strings.

So true. Major pain in the ass but the payoff is worth it! New strings feel and sound great. I am a big fan Elixir coated strings. They cost more but I think they are worth it. :thumbsup

pay some chump roadie to do it
or drink beer

Im a pro at it. My strings always look like they were done on a machine from the factory. :thumbsup

amen. i am anal retentive about how my strings go on. if they're no perfect i rewind, or get a new string altogether.

I bet u can get a guitar guy to come to your house and set up all of them for not that much. Do a cash deal. Also unless your playing out ,it doesnt need to be done that often.

What's up sticky! what guitar(s) are you playing these days?

yea shit sucks :(

Consider yourself lucky you don't have to restring 5 12 string guitars... I used to travel with 2 of them and restringing was always a 3-5 hour task by the time you get them restrung, tuned and then 'settled in'...

throw your guitar out then, the last thing the world needs is another wannabe rocker playing a crappy guitar, a guitar is not an insturment it is annoying.

I got a guitar for xmas last year... I can play twinkle twinkle little star :upsidedow

I got a gibson accoustic, i took one lesson in 98' & its been sitting in my closet ever since.

U play too? Cool... what guitar do you have? I have a Gibson SG special faded...

and that right there is exactley the reason i have never bought a 12 string.

:1orglaugh

i LOVE their sound, and i LOVE playing them. but putting new strings on one of those? forget it.

i am FAR too lazy.

always wanted to learn to play a guitar,but never had time:(

I agree.. it sucks to insert and pull those strings lol...

Ya just insert them and pull its easy... :1orglaugh
