[CAUT] P22 scale

Several years back, I called Yamaha with a broken bass string  
request, and the rep and I got to chatting about that I'd replaced  
this same bass string on a number of P22s which was breaking at the  
coil where sharp angle from pin to capo made the wire jump the coil -  
although he debated with me that was why, and indicated this was not  
even the string with the highest incidence of breakage - also not  
consistent with my experience at the time.  They do indeed keep  
records of which bass strings break most often and offered to send me  
the "rescaled" strings for those I was replacing often.

What information of that they will share, I don't know.
