> Guitar strings wear out fast, and need to be replaced frequently. Now there is a lot more contact with the strings in the case of a guitar, but one also can dramatically improve the sound of a piano by rubbing out worn strings with a plummet stone. Stringing alone can be very time consuming at an institution filled with practice rooms that have pianos we cannot tune due to pin block wear flanked by pianos that need action jobs.
