[CAUT] Stainless wire and "string stretching". What's up?

[Jim Busby]

Hi Ric,

Juan's new "Extra strong" wire will now do almost any piano! I think
within the next year high tension pianos will be within its reach. The
wire is still developing.

Regards,
JIm

Hi Jim

All fine and dandy.... and I am a pure sound fan as well.  But it does 
pre-requisite scales of low enough tension to avoid string breakage 
problems.  Not all pianos will work well with this wire.... but many 
scales can no doubt be modified adequately enough to accommodate pure 
sound wire.
