    Suggestions for Black Coated Strings

    @Rob22315 That was my first thought also, especially because the first time it happened, the problem was with the E string, where I have a Hipshot D-Tuner. But the second and the third time it happened, and with different strings, I gave up on that idea... Of course I may have fu**ed up...
