The "2-3 hours" quote was part of the previous email.That
was not part of my message. My custom set GHS PL-1650 do
have a long life, and do seem to sound really great on all
guitars.
Also........banjo strings really don't lose it as fast as
reso strings. The reason is that wrapped strings usually
lose sound the quickest. On a banjo, your only wrapped
string is the 4th.
