Alright, I'm baffled. On both, my WRXT and my Slammer, the strings are
starting to get rusted or something. I'm still using the stock strings on
the Slammer, so that might explain it... cause it's not a FANTASTIC guitar,
but now Angel, my Warrior, is getting it... just not as badly.
Do I need to be treating them, or have they just worn their welcome? Or is
this not a big deal?   ____________________

strings will rust...mine mostly rust on the bridge and eventually snap...to
prolong the life of strings I use a piece of paper towel and wipe the
strings off...you can see the dirt and grime that come off them. ____________________

If your strings are rusting its probably from the sweat of your hands when
you play. Replace them!

If they are that bad their time is done and you need new strings.
If you want to slow the rust, wash your hands before playing guitar.
The oils on your hands are pretty corrosive to strings. ____________________
