Breaking high E string

[Disturbing Manor]

Stop eating so much red meat and consider taking up bass.

Yeah. I have been going to the gym and bulking up. I knew that when I started to break the high E on my acoustic base that I was overdoing it. I'll cut back a bit.

I had a teacher about 13 years ago who helped me with a lighter touch. He told me to crank my amp up loud enough to disturb people around me, and then to play soft enough so it doesn't, it definitely helped a lot.
