britguy -> Bass strings wont hold tune??? (Mar. 12 2012 18:27:40)
|
Drove from Ontario down to Palm Beach, Florida a few days ago.
Seems like my strings - particularly the bass strings - just will not hold their tune for more than an hour or even less! And I'm talking here of dropping a semi-tone in a few hours!
Every time I pick up the guitar the bass strings in particular are about a semi-tone down. And this has been happening for several days since I arrived here and unpacked my guitar. The strings have been on the guitar about three weeks, and were quite stable before I left Canada.
The strings are Savarez Yellow Card (Xtra High tension)basses, and Alliance normal tension trebles.
Could the humidity levels here in South Florida cause such a situation? It is not that hot here at this time (high seventies or so). And it does not feel all that humid either.
I`m puzzled. Anybody offer an explanation. . .
