Been there, done that... I think all of us know what that's about.

Hehe.. excellent stuff ! Just a quick question to everyone: Where does the string usually break for you ? At the bridge or in the middle, somewhere on the neck ?

With me, it's in the middle, wherever I've been bending it.

Good one lol
My strings break at the middle as well, most of the time...

In my case I remember it was ner the bridge, but that was on an old tele I had. I believe it had some sharp edges there, because it has never happened again on any of my guitars!

Great Comic For a while I was using a pick made of Metal as it gave a great rythm crunch but it would snap strings like crazy. It wore straigh through the higher strings in about a week. I had to quite using it. Switched to acetate picks and vpicks. Not quite a nice a sound, but they don't make me pop strings every time I play.

Hey, guess who just tried to do a whole-and-half-a-step bend and broke a string.... But not the string I was bending, but the string above it! This is new.

hehehe I have these kinds of fears all the time ) My bass strings break at the bridge most of the time.

haha brilliant one!

My strings are always breaking just 5 minuts before the shops close and yea, somtimes you forget to buy a 2 packs of strings

Posted by: Azzaboi Dec 30 2010, 11:06 PM

I think every guitarist has done that while playing!
... well the ones like me that get overly excited after learning to bend, after once you kinda learn the limits.

HAHAHAHA! How did I miss this one?! This is so funny! It's been a while since I've broken a string. I usually changed them before they have a chance to now. But I remember when my first string broke, for the first time on my first electric guitar (lots of 1st ) - and I was like, "OH NO!!" I thought I broke the guitar! haha

Embarrasing, been there and it's been worse for me. At a gig, I did the opening bend for the "Sweet Child O Mine" solo, ended up breaking my E string. Good thing there was a back up string or I'd have been busted. Oh well, I remember now to use a thicker guage.
