ARE YOU BREAKING TOO MANY STRINGS? 

The STRING THING may be for you. Take a look at your string after it breaks.  If it looks like figure B, you need the STRING THING. Your string is not breaking at the saddle, it is breaking where it rides over the bridge plate. The STRING THING will make that string last many times longer. Just slide it over your string before installing it. Slide it as close to the ball end as you can. After the string is installed the STRING THING should poke out of the bridge plate as shown in figures C & F. Works on unwound strings up to .018 inches. Easy to fit to any bridge. Adjust size with scissors. 5 STRING THINGS per package. Reusable.
