Hi Just wanted to clear some things up as I've researched and got many different answers. What I want to know is If you shield the pickups well enough would that DECREASE noise when panned to a single pickup or can it actually get RID OF the noise ? Thanks

I guess its a matter of trial and error, nevertheless I'll keep on trying !

[quote name='Lfalex v1.1' timestamp='1336208495' post='1642428'] A month sounds too short, but behind that statement litres a number of variables. How many hours' playing is that, and under what conditions? In what way are your strings not to your satisfaction after a month? Dead? Breaking? Or just not packet fresh anymore? I've used all the brands you name, and have lasted over a month, even against my uber-corrosive sweat... If you can identify the issue, you may get closer to a solution... [/quote] How would I look for the soloution though ? Any kind of checklist laying around ?

Thanks for the comments guys I donno, im not that of a sweaty bugger but y'know. I do love flats but they're not the best for slap are they I play atleast for about 2 hours weekdays and weekends probably double that time (Any time I get im on it). I donno after a month that 'zing' isn't there anymore it's like they've died, when I get a new set on its that zingy sound that I love but can't be buying new sets everyweek can I

Ok, so im a student which removes the "just buy a new set" outta the window. I just wanna know how long do yours last ? I play slap as well as fingerstyle if that helps. Mine at the momment last just over a month, why ? Is there anything I can do to get more life, untill i buy the next set. Ive tried Overwater, DR fat beams and the other ones, Elixer and some others all roughly give me a month anything i can do ? cheers
