When I took my (new to me) Risa solid out of it's case this morning, the E string was broken.
I'd been thinking about changing strings anyway. I had no idea how old they were, plus they had some nicks in them. And I was having some tuning/intonation issues with one of the strings, which is usually a good indicator that change is due.
But what a pain! The space around the tuners is so small and the strings are in the way. It's just generally hard to work in. Then one of my strings pulled through after I got it on and tuned. Apparently I needed a bigger knot. Arghhhh!
I did finally get it restrung. With Worth Clears, btw.
