Counter-bearing drag

Hi Bob,

I coat most brass parts too, but when it comes to string terminations, I'm pretty sure that the strings will scrape off any relevant finish during the stringing process. :(

    Why brass? It is so soft, will get marred by the strings and eventually tarnish?
  I always coat brass with a clear sealer before stringing to slow down any future discoloration.
