Thanks all, Well - doesn't sound too good does it :-\ It does look somewhat illogical as to how it's supposed to hold the string in place with the ball the size it is for the G string. It's still under warranty so maybe I'll get it looked at :-). This is how it came from the shop. Colin. PS It does look like maybe some of the casting has come away due to the tension on the string. Anyway I have email the place I bought it from. Cheers all.

Hello All, I have an Ibanez 5 String 375f fretless. I was doing some recording the other day and the G just popped out of the bridge. Many attempts to restring it later and everytime I tighten it up it'll sit for five minutes and pop out again. Some of the green cover has come off the ball. I was going to put some flat wounds on it anyway but just wondered if anyone knew the correct way to string this thing. I must admit it looks like a miracle the rest of them manage not to do the same - I've never seen this way of holding a string in place before. Picture attached. Thanks Colin.
