This is not usually cause by low humidity. Pushing the pins in too far is a possible cause, but soft plastic pins do not add much force. Bone pins are a different story. The overwhelming cause is 150+ pounds of string tension, acting on a piece of brittle wood (ebony) with six holes in it.
John. Thank you for the response. I'm hoping that's really the case. I don't want to take it back but I also don't want something that's got permanent damage if it was dried out.
