Does anyone know if as strings get older they change thier balance? What I mean is I have a 6 month old set of DR lo riders on my BTB which I never had a problem with but recently the E is super loud compared to the others. I have taken them off and done the soaking in meths trick which makes them bright again but the E is still loud, any thoughts?

I have sort of gotten around it by dropping the pickups a bit and using more gain and a bit of compression but I am confused as to why they were fine in the previous configuration for so long. Anyone shed some light? Do E strings go funny with age more than the others?
