 Nice pic Bryan!  I'd say you're looking rather intense.

 This is from May......I put a new set of DR's on that bass just before we took that trip, I played two shows with that bass for a total of 6 hours time on the strings.........They were so dead, I tossed 'em when we got home...........

One time I played 54 gigs in one year and like 50 rehearsals, all on the T-Bird with one set d'Addarios. The strings were not only dead, but the fretboard was covered with a black layer of skin, beer, sweat, blood, ...

And I was concerned I didn't change my strings enough.  Not anymore!

i have used sets of flats for a year or more. the only reason i ever change a set is to try something else and the old strings usually resume life on something else.
