In the last few (maybe 4) months, I have bought about 3 E's, 1 A, and now I need to buy another D since I broke that last night.
I use a Fender Strat and Hybrid strings (i think it's .46-.09). The strings ALWAYS break right where they come out of the body of the guitar after feeding them in through the back (or, right where your palm is when you palm mute).
I notice there are some small grooves in the parts that the strings lie on, I suppose from strings cutting into the metal...?
Anyway, does anyone know a safe way to prevent string breakage??
It doesn't seem to matter if I play fast/slow, hard/soft, the damn things always break, and it's ALWAYS E, A, or D. I haven't broken G B or E in a very long time.
Thanks.
