I have been playing guitar for more than 20 years now and do not remember ever breaking a string. My brother always plays my guitars and is always breaking the strings. I dont know how he manages to break them so often.

Do you have a problem with strings breaking, or are you like me and do not remember ever breaking a string on your guitar?

I've broken a few strings, but very rarely. I broke a lot more strings on violin and viola.

I was bad about changing guitar strings and didn't buy new ones every 6 months, but instead usually waited a year or so. Even though guitar strings are a lot cheaper than violin and viola strings.

using the tremolo bar in my floydrose equiped guitar makes me break strings more often.. i use .10 string sets and tuned and locked to D. but with my other guitar that is only equiped with a stop tail piece bridge, i guess i only change them because of rust or just natural wear and tear effect.

I don't clearly know how often i break the strings, i think it's around one string per 2 months.
