I have a nice hand built tenor with wooden bridge pins. I changed strings last week and now one of the bridge pins keeps popping out about a full step or so away from its correct pitch.
I’ve tried multiple string brands with the same result. I suspect that the pin has just been worn shiny after changing the strings a bunch of times. As a last resort I’ll reach out to the luthier, but I don’t think there’s anything wrong with the pin.
Is there anything I can do to increase the friction a bit, like chalk powder or similar?
