Holee........maybe ur hardcase got sumthing wrong? I've nvr experienced that kinda problem b4. I do 1 hr of practice everyday like u and my strings take at least a month to rust! I keep my guitar in the open too!

hey shredaholic..
hahaha...one hour of shredding a day is more than enough...
but u did mention..u didn't touch it for 2 days after changing the strings... thats the reason y!!

new strings rust very easily... must season them for around 1 week or 2..then u can "dun touch it" for a couple of days and it won't rust..

in fact..my strings rust over 6 hours after i changed them..haha...but its alright one man..u just pick it up again and shred like hell!! the rust can be removed one..
unless its 1 month old then nothing can be done already lah..

as for that anti perspirant thing..haha..i think that guy is telling to u spray on your left hand everything u touch the string..so there won't be any sweat..but i'm also quite sure thats not the main thing that cause string to rust.. just shred more!!

as for hardcase..i just find it too troublesome to put it inside all the time..

DR is very good for metal people lah..hahhaa..its not very light..but it gives the tone man..
if u into the hardcore metal..then try the dimebag series..if not then just try the standard.. 9 to 42...or 9 to 46..

good luck for your O's result man! take care..
