Another thing that I do is stick a pencil in the strings to elevate the d and g strings so I can access those without bowing any others.

Hm, the concept of bowing on a broken string is one I had never heard of before and it does sound interesting. I usually employ paper clips on or thread between my strings, but I'll be sure to try this method out sometime as well, thanks!
But hey, back on topic: TFW one wants to jam with Frownland but he's on the other side of the world.
