This is probably a silly question, but every once in a while I see a ukulele strung up with a coil of extra string around each tuner on the headstock. Is this an extra string in case one breaks, or just the unclipped remainder of the original string? Is there a purpose for this, or is it purely decorative? I attached an example from facemelting ukulele's cover of gravity. I hope he doesn't mind. Thanks!
