OK, since my '51 is in the shop, I decided to give my Fender some new strings. No problem, right? Aargh! What an exercise in frustration. These strings absolutely refused to wind around the tuning peg. Then I got to the high E (which for me is usually the hardest) and it went on like nobody's business. Very silly indeed. Nothing like something trivial turning into an hour and 15 minute ordeal. A new set of strings is awfully nice and well worth even this amount of stupidity.

Thanks for letting me vent and share by abject lack of fine motor skills with you.
