ACID SWEAT

Post by somedevil8 »

SO I THINK MY STRINGS ARE DYING LIKE HELL B/C OF MY SWEATY FINGERS. IM USING D'ADARRIO EXP 16'S. IS IT THE STRINGS OR AM I REALLY THAT UNFORTUNATE? ANY RECCOMENDATIONS AS TO TYPES OF STRINGS FOR MY BODY CHEMISTRY WOULD BE APPRECIATED.

As long as you wash your hands before you play and wipe off the strings after you play, sweaty hands won't matter that much. But i have got much better string life from coated elixirs.

i have the same problem mine would die every week even with coated strings...so i bought this stuff called fast fret and i wipe it on it every time i am done playing and it makes the strings last an extra week.

give it a shot...always remember to wipe down your strings during and after playing :wink:
