Hiya:

Just a thought. My experience and others has been that kinks cause amplitude 
pulses which may be mistaken for false (real) beating. False (real) beating 
is caused by induced variation in length, mass, or tension in a single string 
(e.g. a loose bridge pin, or a double termination at the bridge or capo as 
the result of several types of material deterioration). As the string 
stretches, these amplitude pulses may diminish, but real (false) beats may 
arise from faulty terminations during the process and should be corrected 
accordingly.
