    When I was a teen, everytime a string broke, instead of replacing, I'd just learn to play with 1 less. Was down to 2 strings at one point. AWESOME for your guitar practise. You have no choice but to walk up and down the neck.

    This literally happened to me. I left a friend borrow my guitar who usually smashes guitars when he gets mad but instead he just cut 3 strings off my guitar and gave it back to me. He's so nice to me😁
    I then wrote a song with 3 strings. Lyrics below-
    Who love strikes
    It doesn't care
    Without a warning
    Out of thin air
    She fell out the sky
    Into my life
    I don't know why
    But it feels right
    Just like a plane crash
    It happened oh so fa---------st
    Behind a wall
    sits a girl
    Who's more amazing
    than she's showing the world
    I got my own
    That's crashing down
    The only one I wanna love
    Is this one that I've found
    Just like a wrecking ball
    I'm a falling wa-----all------
    I fell in love with this girl
    I fell in love with this girl
    I fell in love with this girl
    [Music changes]

    I would never ever hurt her

    I would never ever hurt her
    I---- fell------
    I would never ever hurt her
    Fal----ling
    I would never ever hurt her
    I did write a song on one string too.
    Like to hear it? Well here it goes...
    Lyrics:
    They say you learn
    By example
    They say you learn
    By mistakes
    They say you learn
    By taking chances
    It all depends
    On the chances you take

    They say when you're old
    You'll understand
    They say when you're dead
    You will have learned
    That life is what happens

    Murder of crows
    It's a man's folly
    No one knows
    It's lesson learned

    You can crash and burn
    Or you can bob and weave

    The composer & violinist Niccolo Paganini had a 'party piece' where by keeping a finger nail sharpened, he could cut a string (made with gut at the time) during the performance. The audience would gasp but he would carry on. The piece would increase in difficult variations as it went on & he would continue to break the strings until he was left with just the one.

    YEEESS all music terms (and words in general) go over my head, I simply do not hear them, but as a starry eyed yet complete pissnoob I was wondering what those lines behind the strings are for, and this explains it perfectly. A clear visual, I love it, thank you. This is all I needed.
    Maybe if I'd used like a second to figure out that shortening a vibrating thing makes the sound it emits higher, I wouldn't have needed to google this, but since music is complete sorcery for me I forgot the laws of physics apply to it.

    That's what very nice on the thief to close the door. This is one of those things that would keep Columbo up at night.

    If somebody broke into my house and all they did was cut my guitar strings, I would be way more pissed than if they just stole the damn guitar.
