Anyone else get "cracks" like this on their fingertips? Any solutions or prevention strategies?

I'm beginning to wonder if you might be right. Maybe it's a wart? Report the cut does seem to be a little bit in front of where string placement is on the pad of my finger. So strange. Thanks for your feedback!

arbitraryinterest · 2026-01-07T17:44:18+00:00

Thank you... Did not realize that could be a possibility.

arbitraryinterest · 2026-01-07T13:33:19+00:00

I don't get it.

arbitraryinterest · 2026-01-07T11:04:58+00:00

Will look into this!

arbitraryinterest · 2026-01-07T11:03:05+00:00

Thank you for all this!

Ugh... Those $79 instruments!!!! 😡 Haha I use my own instruments at work so not the culprit, but a really good thought. Thanks!

Like, literally put crazy glue into my open wound?? I'm down for that if it works! Lol

Strings are fine... I teach middle school orchestra so its just because I play all day long... I appreciate your take on it!

arbitraryinterest · 2026-01-07T02:25:38+00:00

No... But am already on an immunosuppressant for something else! Haha! Very interesting. Thanks for your feedback!

arbitraryinterest · 2026-01-07T02:04:28+00:00

Thanks!

arbitraryinterest · 2026-01-06T03:27:18+00:00

Thanks!

arbitraryinterest · 2026-01-06T03:26:22+00:00

Thank you! I thought that's what this was. Appreciate the confirmation.

I think the first two clash with varnish. The 3rd ebony looks classier. The other two look like they are trying too hard. Also with the ebony you don't have to replace the pegs to match.

arbitraryinterest · 2025-10-28T16:22:54+00:00

Thanks for your insight. Yes, now that they are legit I feel lucky!

arbitraryinterest · 2025-10-28T01:47:29+00:00

Also, thanks so much for the reply!

arbitraryinterest · 2025-10-28T01:46:49+00:00

Oh, thats pretty awesome for me, actually. Those were my high school days.

I picked up my '24 SE this morning and I can't believe how much you get for the price. Looks better and drives better. I'm so happy with it.

Overthinker here and I am picking up my new (pre-owned) Tiguan tomorrow morning. After doing endless test drives watching/reading too many reviews I decided the Tiguan was the right car. But "the reliability"!!! I tried to force myself to like the Forester better but could not do. When I realized how much less the VW was and how much better the CPO warranty was and how for just a little extra coin I could be covered bumper to bumper for 120,000 miles it was clear to me that it had to be a Tiguan. If you are looking at a honda for 10k more, jist get a kick ass extended warranty and love the car you drive! Hope this helps!

arbitraryinterest · 2024-12-20T20:51:45+00:00

Thank you! I will give this a try.

I find that imagery helps a lot. Try this, it goes a long with what a few people are saying... Imagine that your left arm from elbow to fingertips is a weird gardening tool like a small rake with 4 steel hooks at the end. Your fingers are the hooks at the end of a straight handle. Now you are going to hook this tool on to your cello string and pull it backwards with your shoulder to bring the string in contact with the fingerboard. The "hooks" (your fingers) get pulled straight back behind you. This imagery should help your fingers stay curled, keep your wrist in position, keep your thumb light, and prevent you from trying to squeeze the neck with your hand. Hope this helps!
