Hey, bought a set of chromes for my fretless today. And they are coloring my fingers black/darkblue.
Why?, what is it?
Shall I wipe the strings?
BTW, Good sounding anyway |

I do not understand this.  |

| | | Yep, this happens. It seemed even more so from the TI jazz flats I've used. Just run a string cleaner over them after you put them on, you should be good to go.
Or, eventually it will just stop happening anyway. Enjoy!  | | Thread Tools | Search this Thread | | | |
