I realised the mistake immediately. I wAs trying out a string I'd not used before , but I've been sent a replacement foc,so that will be fitted soon perhaps not tonight tho! The strings I was trying were Rotosound Superbronze. I think the last time I bought Rotosound strings was from Kitchens in Leeds and that's some time ago. They are an odd string in that the core not the wrap is in contact with the saddle. I'm rather impressed with them and will certainly be buying them in the future. Has anyone else tried them?

I made a bloody embarrassing cock up when restringing my guitar with a set of strings I hadn’t used before for some reason I fitted the d string in stead of the low e, I was in the process of waggling the string to break it and at the instant it broke I thought the string gauge looked a tad slim

What the consensus of how to measure string spacing at the bridge? Bridge pin hole centres? Inside to inside of top and bottom strings Outside to outside of top and bottom strings Any other options?

3K a good wedge I think I'd buy a few sets of everlasting self cleaning strings and a pot of Fairy Dust to sprinkle it on my Guild 12 string to lighten it and brighten it with some mop inlays!

I've put some pics on the Ancient Parlour Tuning threads I'm now toying with the idea of doing considerably more than absolute minimum to get a tune out of this
