Anyone come up with an easy way to get new strings up and on the saddle on a stock Affinity Tele? The top loader bridge and saddles make it tough to get the string up and over. That is, easy way other than converting it to a string-through?

just put a bend in the end of the string you thread thru the toploader holes.
twist the string so the bend goes up...then you can grab it.
