[CAUT] Harpsichord stringing question

[Jeff Olson]

I have a customer with a harpsichord who keeps breaking strings (some he's 
replaced, perhaps with the wrong gauge), and wants to know how he can 
determine what the right gauge is for particular notes.

I really don't work on harpsichords (other than a couple of tunings and some 
minor repair over the years), so I'm not sure how to locate the correct 
scale for his Zimmerman. Any suggestions?



Thanks,
