Hi guys I know this is a weird question to ask here but I have little choice, so here goes…
I have a small parlor guitar, with nylon strings, it’s a Pepe Romero jr. And I’ve been using La Bella, Pepe Romero strings, as recommended by him.
The problem I’m having is they don’t last long at all, I will install a new set play off and on, for a month or so, then one of the strings, mostly the low E string has failed, seems they just pull apart. At the bridge end, no place else’s with no visible sharp edges in the saddle itself to cause a point to pull apart, so that’s a little baffling.
I have a few guitars in my rotation, but between this and my S2 594, they get the most playing time, so it not sitting very long.
I’m actually looking for a longer lasting strings, so my $17 per set can be enjoyable a little longer.
Any help would be appreciated.
