List, When replacing a broken string, I now use one of these rubber grommets shaped like a donut to mute the stretching strings when space permits. It's really ideal! The groove in the rubber grommet where the sticker fork normally goes receives the plain music wire quite nicely, and it stays put until the next visit.
