is there anything better sound for guitar than a new set of strings on a guitar?

I agree. I like strings that have 2 days of play on them the best, since they're new but settled. For gigs, I like to string up a day or two before, and make sure they're fully stretched, to avoid any potential tuning hassles. I change them the minute the low E starts to sound like "plod" instead of "boing."

yup

possibly the reason why you change them every 2 weeks is that DR's were built to die, they only retain brightness for a few days

just a thought

i used to change them every 2 weeks when i had boomers, with the dr, i can go as long as i did.
