ORIGINAL: Aretium Ricardo does reusing the slack mean retying the string? I notice that if i just loosen my basses overnight they sound great for a few days. The 820b la bella basses don't last that long but the trebles are the best I have ever tried. That works too, but the thing is if you play A LOT, you can see dark spots develop over the frets and a loss of brightness. If you off set the wear down spots you get renewed brightness. For short strings, you can simply flip them around, but if they wore on the frets it is not nice on the right hand. Ricardo Yep, I get those dark spots. :( I will try your method, Ricardo, really if for no other reason than it helping the environment! For some reason I imagined that it would entail taking the entire string off... good to know it can be done much faster than that. Thanks for all the comments guys!
