After New strings installed

I cannot remember what brand I put on one of the Teles, just some set I had on the shelf in the shop.
I changed strings, then set it aside for a couple of weeks, then played for half an hour.
this is the result.

You got some of those trick strings, did they come with free binoculars?

Anyway nice try Holmes, but i have heard of fingerprints, show me a warrant

Seriously, literally a few minutes ago i was thinking on the lines of 'show us your hands', whilst wondering whether the size and shape of your hands makes you more suited to playing
