Default Glad your luthier found the problem

Tadol,

Happy to hear you solved the string breakage issue. I had a problem with an old classical guitar of mine. Took it to my luthier friend who is authorized by Martin and Gibson to repair their models. And what he found on my old 0028c was a bad bridge saddle. Seems the previous owner had poorly sanded it on the high-end. It was acting like a knife edge and cutting the strings. After replacing it with a new bone saddle I never had a problem.

Tadol, so did you stay with the EJ45's?

Also I see you hate having to tie the strings at the bridge. I am currently going to try a pair of "String-Tie" beads on my Cordoba and plan on posting my results about how they work. I had recently started a thread (inquiry) on said beads. You might want to check my review in a few days or so.

Enjoy the new guitar.
