Question

Black stuff on bass guitar strings


Does anybody know what that black stuff is for on the strings? I found it kind of peculiar.

I *think* it's like nylon or something?

Yeah it looks like nylon, now you mention it. Maybe it's to protect the posts from getting damaged, since the strings are so thick?
