Yo,
I bought a Kraken Octa 8 not too long ago. Cheap guitar, great for the price, and I thought the only problem I had with it was the pickups...
But twice in the space of a month now, I've gone for a tone or two bend on the high E string, and it will snap right in the middle. Not at the nut, not at the bridge. Right in the middle of the string.
I'm using D'addario exl-140 8s, so the high E is a .10. Wondering if I'd have more or less success using 11s? Only had this problem once on my 7, with old strings. Cheers.
