And I cut the D string too short because I screwed up and mistakenly measured it to the E string peg! Dammit! I don't have anymore strings and I don't want to use the old one. So I thought, what the hell? Look!

And it's holding! Dammit!
They are extra light stings, and it's holding tune! And it's a square knot!That's fail, get a new string, dude.
Have you tuned it to pitch yet?
Just an all-around bad idea.
I don't even have many instruments around here, but if I did, none would have n1gger-rigged strings.
PS: Y U use such heavy strings?

I know, but we live in a one saw horse town where they ain't got none! But I'll order another three pack tomorrow! But hey, it's still holding and I bent the hell out of it playing for over an hour.They are extra light stings, and it's holding tune! And it's a square knot!That's fail, get a new string, dude.

You sorry granny knot-tyer.
Break yourself and spend 80 cents on a string.
/----/ Ahhhh the old Carpenter's rule: Measure twice and cut once. Apparently applies to guitar strings and musicians.And I cut the D string too short because I screwed up and mistakenly measured it to the E string peg! Dammit!

That's how I used to do it, but the "experts" at Taylor say different. However, I don't think it makes any difference so I think I'll just go back to cutting after. And fwiw, the knot is still good!And I cut the D string too short because I screwed up and mistakenly measured it to the E string peg! Dammit!

String first, then cut. It's bad practice to cut a wound string before it has been tightened.

Best sounding guitar I've had for the money. It was 1100.00 dollars, but, if I had 3500.00 that day, I would have bought the Gibson Hummingbird. A fantastic guitar.That's how I used to do it, but the "experts" at Taylor say different. However, I don't think it makes any difference so I think I'll just go back to cutting after.

Well, Taylor makes a fine instrument. They should know.

Mike...your GBE strings are strung backwards....they should be wound to the inside of the pegs.
Nice knot though......I got an Indonesian Fender acoustic CD60CE with a Fishman pickup....picked it up on Amazon for $300 with a nice case. Getting back into it after a 30 year layoff....learning lead licks off YouTube videos. I'm using Elixir 12/53s after snapping a set of Ernie Ball slinky junk.
I knew they were backwards, and I just left them. You might want to try some thinner strings, be a lot easier to bend and easier on your fangers!And I cut the D string too short because I screwed up and mistakenly measured it to the E string peg!

Indonesian Fender acoustic? Wtf?
Here I was thinking I was weird for having a Japanese student Ibanez.
You know, I didn't pay much for it, and the action and intonation are good, so whatcha gonna do?
Oh yeh, It's the Jap version of an Epiphone/Les Paul.
It says Epiphone, but it's Ibanez..somehow.
Quality is a good thing, no matter where you find it.
