My point: I don't think he's simply saying he wears out his strings...and Glenwillow provides an anecdote that can exacerbate that phenemenon.

I agree with the "unfortunately" part...just another grain of salt.
Just like in every respectable guitar interview, Tommy was asked which brand of strings he played. That's when he went on about changing brands all the time because the guitar got used to it.

Of course, the reasonable answer would've been that his ears got used to the same brand/tone and that he enjoyed a change every now and then. Alas Tommy went with the more esoteric/spacey answer...
