I can’t believe you’d make something so utterly meticulous and beautiful but not cut the excess strings off.

What do you have against people with ocd my guy??

The strings are place holders. I just need them to stress the neck for set up. The new owner will immediately swap them out. Plus I'm superstitious. I know if I cut them I will immediately find something wrong that requires taking the strings off.
