So, I played a gig with my band past saturday, and the 2nd time on stage within 6 months my B-string snapped during the first song, right at the bridge. I was lucky enough that our singer played with his other band there as well and had his 5-string ready, so we could play the rest of the concert in a decent manner.

But I'm really pissed with the strings. It is, overall, the 7th or 8th B-String trashed in 1 1/2 years. I always relied on Warwick Black Label strings, but since they redesigned the B-String (it's getting very thin towards the bridge), I have reliablity problems.

Question for you: has anyone else such problems? I can see why they designed the string that way, but I really have the feeling it's for the cost of livespan. I just want to make sure it's not something I do wrong, before blaming the strings and trying new ones.

Thanks for your thoughts in advance!
