I know how you feel, I was about to play a show and I was tuning...I open my case to find no e string...it snapped on the 6 hour car ride. I had no joke 5 packs of strings with...5 strings all together so my manager had to run out and grab a pack from the closest guitar shop, which by the way was closing just as he got there, and by the time he got back I had already re-strung with a B string just in case. My face the entire time was a mixture of :mad: and :eek: it was embarassing...moral of the story, always carry a rubber
