For some unknown reason (OCD), I keep the pins on their respective gauge strings. I think it looks like the Low E pin get's a little more chewed up than the rest, so I let them stick with what they know.

I name my strings after people I don't like. Something so satisfying about cutting them in half after three months.

Is it one of those names with a Lynn?

Default bridge pin names

As a matter of fact, I do have names for them. Starting at the bass side, here goes: "Eeee", "Ay", "Dee", Gee", "Bea" and "Eee" (again - the son of the bigger Eeee, his voice is higher pitched because he's little).

Good grief.
