Which is why I recommend the S series instead.
No matter how many ways you look at it, the ZR-Trem is waaaaaaay better.

It feels basically the same... The ball area is reinforced, so it doesn't give way that fast... Especially on floating bridges...

Haven't have the chance to try out the wipes yet... Will do so in a few days...

The normal Slinkies around 2 weeks...
It normally breaks at the ball area...

The RPS Slinkies around 1 month...
Normally snaps at the fretboard area due to excessive bending...

I bought mine from Music Theme, Singapore...
Might want to check with Bentley whether they have any stock...
The Wonder Wipes are S$8.50 per bottle, the same price you get in the US...
I didn't buy the string conditioner though...
Might try it out the next time I drop by...

Here's an excerpt from that interview with Laiho:

Q: Why did you make those lame comments about Dream Theater in GW? You're a fine player, but comments like those just make people lose respect for you. Did you know it caused a big stir?

Laiho: F***. [laughs] Well, apparently it did. First of all, I think it's really funny that people trash bands and musicians every day on the internet, and nobody gives a s***. But once you say something like that-which wasn't even too bad-in a magazine, all of sudden you're the biggest d*** on the earth.
But truthfully, I don't know why I said that. I was having a bad day or something. Obviously, John Petrucci is a better guitar player than I am, and it's not my place to talk s*** about him.

"There are lots of guitar players out there who play super fast and super well--but they're also super lame. Like Dream Theater." - Laiho

oh man, today i tried a simon & patrick songsmith acoustic, list at RM1560.
and i can say its way way better value than even the taylor big baby, sounds even better than some of the RM4k+ guitars around.
the way i see it, you're paying for extra bling in them like fancy inlays etc.
now its gonna be between this and a takamine for my next acoustic tongue.gif
