6. Having To Cancel An Entire Weekend's Worth Of Plans Because You Snapped A String
If required, you could probably suspend a lorry full of shoehorns from the ceiling using only a few .115 gauge bass strings. While that means that they can help you dissolve the spines of anyone who catches you putting down a filthy low riff, it also means that their maintenance is almost industrial. To successfully restring a bass guitar, you need courage, pliers, strength, WD40, determination, and some heavy duty gloves. It would actually be quicker and easier to just break into a guitar shop and steal a new one.
