Looking for Single String Retainers!!!

As you can see the A string and D string are causing me some issues, there was a double string retainer in place put pulled out when I changed over to Medium strings.... Help Please!!

I've used the little screw in eyelets with success. If you don't like that may just have to relocate your retainer screw to fresh wood (perhaps using a longer one) and hope for the best.

Can you make a retainer that is screwed down on each side of the string ??

You can always use a piece of brass,drilled at 2 ends or either side of the middle string and screwed in.It works for me.

Thank You Everyone.... Appreciate the input

Use a screw. Or an eyelet. Fill the hole with white or wood glue, and break off a toothpick in the hole. That'll give the screw something to bite into, if you want to reuse the same hole.

Thanks Everyone

Beautiful..... I hope to make one soon, love the third one down!! But all are Bad A$$

Both are Awesome, I notice a lot of fret-less... I am really liking the slide Picking much more than the strumming
