What always bothers me about this is that old tubby strings also tend to break at the becket when you detune to loosen the string! I do not enjoy trying to splice big ol' bass strings! I have had some success loosening the string only somewhat then banging the heck out of it either by loudly playing the "note" or tapping the string with tuning hammer or other tool.
