string test. new guitar strings

[Rudi]

EB Paradigm strings are pretty new, about twice the cost of ordinary strings but are supposed to last a long time, not rust & are break 'resistant'.

 

Well I got some & decided to conduct a test. It’s going to take quite a time though.

 

I am comparing regular EB Slinkies (10-46) with EB Paradigm Slinkies (10-46).

I fitted both sets of string this morning as follows:

EB Slink : Deuce

EB Paradigm Slink : Elite

I’ve already put in 90 minutes playing on the Elite, I will log the hours I spend playing on both. The intention is to play them for equal periods in order to assess the pricey Paradigms.

 

The guitars are similar in most respects. I’ll try to find this thread when I have anything to report
