In 50 years I have broken 2 strings while playing. The last one was an Elixir G.

Kendall - 50 years? - that's a LOT of playing!

I guess since I waited so late in life to start playing it is hard for me to imagine!

We figured out my stats on my 2 sets of Elixirs. I have had my guitar 189 days and played some 154 of those days - 81%, so -- let's see - that's -- Oh, well anyway they are is some good strings to my way of thinking. But then I am playing rhythm.
