The Things I Love Thread

Yeah, I really miss seeing the Salt Lake Valley the morning after a big storm. The winter storms were/are my favorites, but those in the summer were nice too.

I love restringing my guitars and hearing that ever so familiar clean, resonant sound when I strum the strings for the first time. Every I change strings I wonder why I don’t do it more often.

New strings are always something to look forward to. On my primary guitar which I play a lot, (a Martin D35), I try to change them every 6 weeks or so.

As an aside, the doors guitarist, Robbie Krieger, supposedly only replaced strings when they broke, as he hated the sound of new strings. I hope he was cleaning them often, they get filthy.

Back then strings were not made nearly as well, so I’m guessing he had to change them somewhat often. He was a great guitar player, generally very simple. He wrote some of their best songs.
