  We propose a microscopic description of black strings in F-theory based on
string duality and Fourier-Mukai transform. These strings admit several
different microscopic descriptions involving D-brane as well as M2 or M5-brane
configurations on elliptically fibered Calabi-Yau threefolds. In particular our
results can also be interpreted as an asymptotic microstate count for D6-D2-D0
configurations in the limit of large D2-charge on the elliptic fiber. The
leading behavior of the microstate degeneracy in this limit is shown to agree
with the macroscopic entropy formula derived from the black string supergravity
solution.
