    Then it has something to do with that saddle . Or the little steel block that presses the string inside the saddle might be cracked If you have a OFR.

      Sorry ... carry on.
      My point was that the guitar in question here doesn't have a "flush" mounted Floyd. That's all.
      I feel my soul go cold... only the dead are smiling.

          That's exactly what happened to me recently. I discovered I tightened my clamp too tight. The minute I would loosen that clamp to re-adjust my tuning....SNAP! goes the high E. I stopped tightening that clamp too tight and the breakeage stopped.......Live and Learn!!!!!!
