I have a new nickname. Jammer - Destroyer of Strings. At band rehearsal I broke 3 strings. The high "E" and "B" and amazingly, the thickest and hardest to break, the low "E." It was humid, and I did a lot of up-tuning and down-tuning, plus the strings were on the guitar for a little over a month, but still, that is some kind of dubious record.
I am a heavy-hitter. Exuberant! But some of it might be attributed to bad technique. Or crummy strings. But in this case, the strings are actually quality. So yes, I admit, it's the player, not the play. Destroyer!
