I recently had one come undone at the ball end. Never had that happen before...hope it never happens again :-).

It's a matter of personal perference, but I've found that my playing is best on strings that have a bit of tarnish on them. Otherwise, the will slip on me when I try to do bends sometimes. I change my strings once a month and I try to do my strings changes about a week before I know I'll be playing out or rehearsing with band.
