These can be tough to diagnose. But 5 breaks in 2 weeks doesn't sound normal unless all the strings are from same "old" set? The string doesn't break near the bridge but around 5th fret, right?

That must be annoying as hell. If I were to take a guess i would think it would have something to do with tension. I'm sure I good set up will correct it.

That only happened to me with my 69 reissue Tele. I believe it was a sharp edge on the bridge.
