Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
screw it loose all the way and then screw it back in tight it might be that its just not put in properly !? did u change ur strings recently!? cause that might be the problem too new strings take time to strech out so youll have to tune it up constantly! if that doesnt help let me know!

The common fix is chalk - plain old white blackboard chalk!. Rub a little where you need to, and it helps grab!. If you need to remove it, it wipes right off!. I am sure that someone is selling some fancy stuff - but most string players I know have used this as an emergency fix for their students!. What THEY use on their own violins - I have no idea - I am a flutist!Www@QuestionHome@Com

Peg dope!. Any string shop sells it!. It's not expensive, and that is what the pros use!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
