Ok, it's true confessions time, I can hold this in no longer!  Changing 
guitar strings happens to be my least favorite activity of all time...in 
fact, I will admit that I did not even change the strings prior to the 
recording of my new album...my producer didn't think it was necessary...my 
new guitar stays so incredibly in tune...I'm always afraid new strings will 
slip out of tune...I have been playing guitar for over 30 years...
