Hi list,

New topic!  When restringing and retaining the existing pinblock - 
for instance, the pins are not loose, but you are improving bridges, 
capo, agraffes, etc, - do you use anything on the pinblock holes, 
such as gun cleaning brush (what size?), reamers (also what size?) 
and what results have you had? has anyone done any "scientific" 
research with this? As in, I've never treated some holes one way and 
others a different way to check results. Just wanting to know what 
you prefer.

Thanks,
