Not real sure if it's the actual problem but 95% of the time that's what it is.

Nah, it doesn't technically "break". They always unwind off the ball end for some reason. It's apparently pretty common for jaguar/jazzmaster owners. It has something to do with the vibrato system, but no one knows for sure WHY it actually happens. I was just wondering if there was anyone who had experience with this problem and the guitars themselves.
