[QUOTE=Permanent Solution]That's the only one I've ever broken.
[/QUOTE] I've never broken my G string. I don't think I've ever broken my 3 highest strings. I've broken me E a dozen times though. |

I'm preparing for test I'm taking on Wednesday, and if I score good on it, it will be put on my record and possibly help me get into a good university. It's math test too.

I broke mine when I was trying to restring for the first time ever.
I failed. |

Sophomore year I took the test that got me my full ride scholarship. Good luck. |
I hate women.
Fact. |
[QUOTE=Permanent Solution]I've never worn one myself /lame :upset:
How do you break your low strings and not the high ones?[/QUOTE] Because when I'm using my high strings I tend to be more gentle. Since I generally pick faster on the high string than on the low strings, I slant the pick to lower resistance. Less stress on the strings, I spose. I kill my low strings though. The constant chug of life :p The 9's I've had on my guitar have laster for a long time, for some reason. I'm going to be replacing them with 11's, though. I've never broken an acoustic string in my life, though. |

[QUOTE=Permanent Solution]Sophomore year I took the test that got me my full ride scholarship.

My band's guitarist breaks literally one almost every practice though, I don't get it. He must buy crap strings. He doesn't know how to string either so I always have to do it :-x NP: Dead Kennedys - I Kill Children |

All I had around was acoustic strings, though. Acoustic strings on electrics is really weird, but it sounds fine when it's distorted. |

[QUOTE=Permanent Solution]Acoustic strings have killer tension, no wonder you can't bend :-\
I'm assuming you mean steel not nylon though :p [/QUOTE] I replaced them with regular strings when I got home.... I have no trouble at all with vibrato bending, but bending on key coupled with other things is difficult for me. I need to realize that I can use two fingers to bend. Just need practice, me does. |

I rarely use two, only for like 3 note bends. Everyone does. |

[/QUOTE] I either bend by moving my finger back and fourth really fast (horizontally) or by bending the string vertically. E string bending is hard. I need to use two fingers for that 15-make-it-sound-like-17th fret bend in the A7X solo. I have small/weak hands. |
