I noticed that with my thumb, the wierd vibration came when the string vibrated against my skin. However, when my nail came in contact with the string, the vibration was minimized greatly. Once my nails grow out to where they need to be, I will be fine.

That's weird. That's the last thing I'd have guessed. My nails are really short and I've never had any vibration like that because of it. Learn something new every day I guess. At least you've figured it out.
