I usually change strings when the battery dies (~3 months) or right before a gig, whatever comes first.
Good tip - I'll try that :encouragement:Cloth, squirt of Purell or other hand sanitizer, run it up and down the strings...instant, cheap string cleaner. Do it every few days. They last way longer.
I really like the Fred pickup but it can be a little weird at times. The Mojoe is in the same ballpark but tamed down somewhat with slightly more gain. I love the tone of the BK Rebel yells but they seem a little less dynamic when using the volume knob compared to the Fred.
I run my finger under each string.
If I can feel indents from the frets in a string I change out the set.
That's a new one for me!
Wouldn't indents (or lack of) depend on how hard the player frets? A light-touch player could have years-old dead strings with no indents?
because just thinking out loud here but you'd have to fret the **** out of a string to actually kink it on a fret.
Uh, not good . If it works for you awesome but....,Good tip - I'll try that :encouragement:
Not really, I have seen small dents develop on my strings over my frets, and I use 11's. It usually only happens if I leave them on for a few months, though. I do bend a lot, and I can be heavy handed, but wear is wear.
