I know, I remember being completely toasted after that, I think I went straight to bed...

Yea, I wouldn't go through that hassle either. So I mentioned that I ran them through the tailpiece backwards? I decided to do it right and while I was at it, I had Garbo A and D's which I switched for the Animas. The whole process took me less than a half hour.
Aside from the round winding on the Garbo D, I like them even better.
FWIW, I find these no harder to put on than any other string.
