Hi folks, I just joined the forum.
I have 3 Guild guitars.
My newest is the A-150 Savoy. Playing this guitar is a bunch of fun.
I am snapping strings (1st and 3rd) at the tail piece though and I'm not sure why. I don't see anything on the tailpiece that looks out of order. I snapped the 1st string while tuning the original strings (flatwounds of an unknown maker). I switched to LaBella silver plated 700M and snapped the 1st and 3rd strings.
I have not owned an archtop before and I have plenty of guitars. I have broken more strings in the past few days than I have in years.
Any suggestions? -------- Thanks
