Re: How long should strings last?

It can last as long as U wanted to (if U don't snap it broken that is)
Tips: if U wanna make them sound crisp again, for me I usually boil them.
Yeah COOK THEM!
about 10-15 min. that's my ritual before I go in to the recording studio...
Try it n' see what U think
All the best
