A little powdered rosin on the pegs where they meet the wood in the peg box can help the pegs hold tightly too. Peg drops or peg dope can be used, but a little powdered rosin can do the job too.
- Wear and tear
- Abuse
- Normal changes due to climate, preventable weather-caused cracks and seam separations
