| Mary,
| 
| I will be using Pscale on this piano sometime in mid-June. I am guessing
| that at least 4 and maybe 6 of the low plain-wire unisons in the low tenor
| will be replaced with wound strings. I'll get back with the scaling results
| next month. It'll be interesting to run several different what if scenarios.
