Had the Carbon Blacks on a tenor for 2 weeks. Opened the case today to find the C-string broke near the tuner. Odd as it is the thickest string with the lowest tension.

Unfortunately this has happened to me and another forum member exactly the same near the tuner i thought it was my fault not fitting it correctly but it's too much of a coincidence now , i've still got the E & A working perfectly strange .
I tried these strings last week, and same problem, 3rd string broken near the tuner.

mmm. heck, thanks for these reports
for the guys that has problem with C string: please send me a PM for a fast replace with two spare strings of C note.
I will do a few canges to fix the problem.
right now I received back 10 complaints about the C string on a few thousand sets sold out.
yes the statistic is low but there are even those that do not complaint.
I will do the changes tomorrow
In the meatime please remember that I am there to do my service.
People spend money for a good product, so they deserve my attention.
Take care

You might be right and in future if i buy some more i'll use that technique of lifting them out of the nut slot , i too didn't have any problems with the red's , strange! , the fact that it's seems to be only the C string on the members that have commented here does seem odd.
But hats of to Aquila and Mimmo for responding so quickly to our feedback .
Unfortunately I am very busy to do other things in these times. that Mini carbonblack were just a test. By the way.l how they work? Since now I have received no feedbacks from a few guys that are tested them.

how to install the strings: my comment on tyhat video is positive; this is one of the right way to install these strings. I have another way; In will do a fast video soon, man.
